About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX225S
The AirTAC SAI160X225-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It generates a substantial push force of 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, making it ideal for high-impact pressing and heavy load manipulation. The 225 mm stroke is a custom, made-to-order length tailored for specialized machinery envelopes.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (code A) for superior corrosion resistance in humid or mildly chemical environments. Equipped with a magnet (-S), the barrel integrates dual sensor grooves compatible with CMSE and DMSE reed switches for precise end-of-stroke detection. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods, providing a clean exterior that simplifies mounting and sensor placement.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX225S Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Provides the immense 14074 N output force required to form, punch, and stamp thick metal sheets in automated fabrication lines.
Injection Molding Ejection
Delivers reliable, high-thrust ejection of molded plastic components, utilizing the 225 mm stroke to clear tall mold cavities safely.
Large Press Tending
Handles the robust push and pull cycles needed to load and unload heavy billets into industrial forging presses.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX225S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this model, consider that stepping down to a 125 mm bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 6136 N, which may be insufficient for heavy stamping tasks. Conversely, moving up to a 200 mm bore yields 15708 N at 0.5 MPa if your application demands extreme thrust. Because this 225 mm stroke is non-standard, ensure your machine design accommodates the exact extended and retracted lengths.
For applications requiring position holding without continuous air pressure, note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at stroke ends and do not function as a brake. In drop-prevention scenarios, integrate the SAIL pneumatic lock variant or an external rod lock. This unit utilizes PT tapered ports and mounts via standard ISO 15552 accessories like TC trunnions or FA flanges. Its operating speed ranges from 30-500 mm/s.
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.
