About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX35S
The AirTAC SAI160X35-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty operations, delivering a substantial push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. Its 35 mm stroke provides rapid, short-travel actuation for high-force clamping or pressing tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, offering a clean exterior that simplifies cleaning and reduces debris buildup.
This specific configuration includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid or mildly chemically exposed environments. Equipped with a magnetic piston (-S), it seamlessly integrates with CMSE and DMSE reed switches via the dual sensor grooves on the barrel. The pneumatic ports feature PT tapered threads for secure, leak-free installations.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX35S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the intense 10053 N force required for short-stroke metal stamping, forming, and riveting operations in automotive assembly lines.
Industrial Pressing
Ideal for heavy-duty pressing and joining applications where a compact 35 mm stroke delivers rapid, localized high-impact force.
Heavy Clamping
Secures large steel workpieces or structural components during machining or welding, utilizing its massive holding power and SUS420J2 rod.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX35S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when an application demands extreme force that smaller bores cannot provide, such as stepping up from a 125 mm bore that yields 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. The 35 mm stroke is optimal for compact, high-impact operations where a long extension is unnecessary. Because the stroke is short, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal compared to longer strokes, but ensuring axial load alignment remains critical for seal longevity.
For direct compatibility, this cylinder matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface dimensions, allowing it to replace other ISO 15552 profile cylinders without modifying existing fixture plates. Mounting options include TC trunnion or FA flange accessories. If the machinery requires the load to remain physically locked in place during a complete loss of air pressure, consider the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock variant, as the standard SAI cylinder will drift when pressure is removed.
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 SAI160AX35S FAQ
Operating at 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 15708 N.
Yes, the SAI160X35-S is built to the exact ISO 15552 dimensional standard, making it a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders using existing mounting hardware and PT port connections.
