About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX210S
The AirTAC SAI160X210-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore actuator is built to move substantial masses across its 210 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, presenting a clean exterior that drops seamlessly into standardized ISO 15552 mounting interfaces.
This specific configuration includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance in humid or chemically active settings. It is equipped with a magnetic piston (-S) to trigger CMSE or DMSE electronic sensors via the dual sensor grooves machined into both sides of the barrel. Fluid connections use PT tapered threads, and the unit relies on adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the large 160 mm piston smoothly.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX210S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Presses
Generates the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa required to drive large dies and form heavy-gauge metal components reliably.
Automotive Assembly Jigs
Provides the robust clamping power needed to hold chassis or powertrain frames stationary during robotic welding and fastening.
Pallet Handling Diverters
Shifts heavy-loaded pallets across transfer lines, using the dual sensor grooves and magnetic piston to confirm divert positions.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX210S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore over the neighboring 125 mm option trades the 8590 N push force (at 0.5 MPa) of the smaller unit for a massive 10053 N, ensuring ample thrust for high-friction or heavy-payload stages. The 210 mm stroke falls well below the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, keeping the rod bearing stress moderate but still requiring attention to side loads. For any application exceeding 300 mm of stroke, utilizing an external guide rail or a fully guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent rod-bearing bending and premature seal wear.
If the machinery must hold a vertical load or resist drifting when air pressure is removed, a standard SAI cylinder will not suffice; the air cushion only decelerates motion near the stroke end and provides no static holding force. For those safety-critical setups, specify the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (bidirectional clamp-lock) variant instead. To match this model exactly, order bore 160, stroke 210, PT tapered port threads, an FA or FB flange mounting accessory, and ensure the -S magnet is included for position sensing.
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 SAI160AX210S FAQ
The 160 mm bore generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
Yes. As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders from brands like Festo or SMC, matching standard mounting footprints and port sizes.
