About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX230
The AirTAC SAI160X230 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 160mm bore unit easily handles high-load clamping and lifting tasks. The 230mm stroke provides substantial travel for large-scale machinery.
Built to exacting standards, this configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. It utilizes PT tapered port threads and operates without a magnet. As a genuine ISO 15552 extruded aluminum profile cylinder, it offers seamless dimensional interchangeability for retrofits.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX230 Is Used
Heavy Stamping Presses
Generates the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa required to actuate heavy-duty stamping and forming dies in metal fabrication facilities.
Large Assembly Jigs
Provides the 230mm stroke and robust thrust needed to position large structural components or chassis frames during automated welding and fastening.
Pallet Handling Lifts
Drives heavy-duty lifting platforms in automated storage systems, moving loaded pallets securely with its high-thrust 160mm bore.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX230 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160mm bore when applications exceed the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa of the 125mm variant, requiring massive thrust. Because the 230mm stroke exceeds 300mm is not the case here, side-load stress is moderate, but ensuring proper rod-bearing alignment remains critical for longevity. If your workflow demands position holding without constant air pressure, the standard SAI will drift; integrate the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant instead. To match this cylinder for replacement, specify: 160mm bore, 230mm stroke, PT G3/4 port, and your preferred mounting accessory like TC trunnion or FA flange.
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.
