About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX240S
The AirTAC SAI160X240-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a substantial 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore actuator handles high-load tasks effortlessly. The 240 mm stroke is a made-to-order dimension, providing tailored motion control for specialized machinery layouts.
Built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A), this model provides excellent corrosion resistance for humid or washdown settings. Equipped with a magnet (-S), it integrates seamlessly with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches housed in the dual-side barrel grooves. It features PT tapered port threads and adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX240S Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Provides the robust 10053 N output force required to form and stamp thick-gauge metal components in automated fabrication lines.
Large Injection Molds
Actuates heavy mold halves and core pulls in large-scale plastic injection molding machinery, utilizing its 240 mm stroke for deep mold movements.
Pallet Diverters
Drives heavy-duty pallet diverting arms and lifting mechanisms in high-throughput distribution centers, handling substantial inertial loads.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX240S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore over the smaller 125 mm option yields a significant force jump, stepping up from 6136 N to 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. Because this 240 mm stroke is non-standard, verify your machinery's exact spatial envelope before ordering. For applications needing true fail-safe load holding without constant air pressure, pair this cylinder with the SAIL air-released lock variant or an external rod lock.
As a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it offers a direct replacement footprint matching other cylinders built to the same standard. Ensure your setup matches the G3/4 port size, M36x2 rod thread, and appropriate mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions. The integrated magnet allows for direct of position sensing switches.
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 SAI160AX240S FAQ
