About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX300
The AirTAC SAI160X300 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 unit seamlessly integrates into existing setups requiring substantial thrust. The 300 mm stroke handles extended travel demands while maintaining strict dimensional interchangeability per ISO 15552 standards.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. Fluid connections utilize a PT tapered G3/4 port. Note that this variant ships without a magnet; position sensing requires the -S option to mount CMSE or DMSE switches along the dual sensor grooves machined into the extruded aluminum barrel.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX300 Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the 14074 N push force required to actuate large mechanical presses and form thick gauge metal components securely.
Injection Molding Extraction
Utilizes the 300 mm stroke to reach deep into large injection molding machines and extract heavy automotive interior panels.
Large Assembly Pressing
Delivers consistent force to seat large bearings and heavy-duty mechanical assemblies within automated machining cells.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX300 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore provides massive output, stepping up significantly from the 100 mm bore which offers 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. For applications needing even more power, the 200 mm bore extends that to 21991 N. At a 300 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases vulnerability to side loading. Employ external guide rails or a guided cylinder carriage to prevent rod-bearing bending and premature seal wear.
Because it is a double-acting cylinder, air controls both extension and retraction. The integrated adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the heavy piston near stroke ends to reduce impact, but they do not lock the load. If your fixture must maintain position safely upon a complete loss of air pressure, specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock.
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 SAI160AX300 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the SAI160X300 generates a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
Yes, the SAI160X300 is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making its mounting interface dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders. You can order it with matching mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions, and add the -S magnet if sensors are needed.
