The AirTAC SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX125S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 125mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI160X125-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty operations, delivering a robust push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa and 14074 N at 0.7 MPa. This 160 mm bore and 125 mm stroke configuration is tailored for high-thrust automation tasks requiring substantial linear power over short to medium distances.
Built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A), this model provides superior resistance to corrosion and wear in demanding environments. The integrated magnet (-S) enables seamless position detection using CMSE or DMSE series switches housed within the dual sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides the immense 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa required to form and stamp thick-gauge metal components in automated fabrication lines.
Exerts reliable, high-tonnage clamping pressure to secure heavy industrial molds and dies during injection or pressing operations.
Drives robust joining and riveting machinery, utilizing its SUS420J2 rod and 125 mm stroke to assemble heavy chassis and structural parts.
Selecting this 160 mm bore is ideal when 100 mm (5497 N at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary power, but a massive 200 mm (15708 N at 0.5 MPa) would be physically excessive. The PT tapered port threads ensure a positive, leak-free mechanical seal in high-pressure pneumatic circuits.
Because standard SAI cylinders do not hold position or maintain a load when air pressure is removed, applications requiring dead-stop safety must utilize the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or an external rod lock. For any stroke over 300 mm, external guides are strongly recommended to prevent rod-bearing bending under side loads.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N and the pull force is 9425 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
Yes, the SAI160X125-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, allowing it to serve as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders with identical mounting interfaces.
