About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX175
The AirTAC SAI160X175 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust push force of 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore unit easily manages substantial payloads across its 175 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel omits tie-rods, providing a clean profile that simplifies mounting and accessory attachment.
Configured here with an SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A), it offers superior corrosion and wear resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The unit utilizes PT tapered port threads (G3/4) and operates efficiently at speeds of 30-500 mm/s. For applications requiring extreme heat resistance, the standard TPU seals can be swapped for Viton (code H), extending the operating temperature envelope up to 70 C.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX175 Is Used
Heavy Metal Forming
Provides the high clamping force necessary to secure thick steel plates during stamping and heavy-duty metal forming operations.
Injection Molding Extraction
Delivers reliable push force to eject large, heavy molded plastic components from injection machinery without hesitation.
Automated Press Systems
Acts as a robust actuator in automated press lines, handling substantial mechanical loads with consistent double-acting power.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX175 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when a 125 mm cylinder falls short—yielding 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa compared to the 125 mm bore's 8590 N. If your application demands less force and faster cycling, stepping down to the 100 mm bore (5497 N at 0.7 MPa) is advisable. The 175 mm stroke is well within standard limits, keeping the assembly compact.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it relies on continuous air pressure to move and hold loads; it will drift if pressure is lost. If your machinery requires true position holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock, or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock. For replacing an existing ISO 15552 unit, match the 160 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, G3/4 PT ports, and your required mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions. Note that because this configuration lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host CMSE or DMSE reed sensors.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX175 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N.
Yes, the SAI160X175 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can use it as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders by matching the 160 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, and G3/4 port size.
