About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX350S
The AirTAC SAI160X350-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation, delivering a substantial push force of 14074 N at 0.7 MPa. Its 350 mm stroke is ideal for long-travel material handling, clamping, and large press operations. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that resists contamination.
This specific configuration includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid or mildly aggressive environments. Equipped with a magnet for position sensing, the barrel features integrated sensor grooves on both sides, allowing quick mounting of CMSE or DMSE reed switches without additional brackets.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX350S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the 14074 N force at 0.7 MPa required to actuate large metal forming and stamping presses over a 350 mm travel distance.
Bulk Material Diversion
Drives heavy-duty diverter arms on high-capacity conveyor lines, using the long stroke to redirect large pallets or bulk material flows.
Automotive Assembly Lifts
Powers robust lifting platforms on automotive production lines, where the SUS420J2 rod material withstands repetitive, high-load cycling.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX350S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore is appropriate when applications require up to 10053 N of thrust at a conservative 0.5 MPa, or up to 18095 N at 0.9 MPa. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, which may save space and air consumption. Conversely, moving up to the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N at 0.5 MPa for massive load moving.
Because this model features a 350 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is susceptible to bending under side loads, which can prematurely wear the rod bearing. To prevent this, implement an external linear guide or use a dedicated guided cylinder to handle radial stresses. Furthermore, standard pneumatic pressure does not hold loads safely during a power loss; the piston will drift. For fail-safe position holding, specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock cylinder.
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 SAI160AX350S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N and the pull force is 9425 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N, reaching a maximum push force of 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
Yes, the SAI160X350-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can drop it in as a replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders of the same 160 mm bore and 350 mm stroke, using standard PT port threads and compatible mounting accessories.
