About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX270S
The AirTAC SAI160X270-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It provides a robust push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa. The 270 mm stroke handles substantial linear movement tasks in large-scale machinery. Equipped with an integrated magnet, this unit operates seamlessly with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches mounted directly into the dual-side barrel grooves.
This model features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion and wear resistance in harsh environments. Fluid ports utilize a PT tapered thread standard. As a genuine ISO 15552 profile barrel design, it offers a direct dimensional replacement for other standard cylinders without relying on external tie-rods.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX270S Is Used
Heavy Metal Forming
Drives large press dies and heavy stamping fixtures requiring sustained high thrust over a 270 mm travel distance.
Large Assembly Presses
Actuates substantial clamping mechanisms in automotive and structural frame assembly lines with precise positioning.
Bulk Material Diversion
Pivots heavy-duty diverter gates on high-capacity conveyors handling aggregate or bulk raw materials.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX270S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when an application demands higher thrust than a 125 mm bore, which yields 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. If your system requires less force, stepping down reduces air consumption and physical footprint. Because the 270 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, it is critical to manage side loads. An unsupported extended rod of this length can bend under lateral stress; utilize an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to maintain alignment and protect the rod bearing.
This cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure drops or the valve centers. For applications requiring static load holding without live pressure, integrate the SAIL locking variant or the BSAI clamp-lock cylinder. To ensure exact ISO 15552 interchangeability, match the 160 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, PT G3/4 ports, and appropriate mounting accessories like the TC trunnion or LB foot bracket.
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 SAI160AX270S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
Yes, the SAI160X270-S is built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards, making it a direct replacement for other profile cylinders of the same bore and stroke. Ensure your mounting hardware and G3/4 port connections match.
