About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX50
The AirTAC SAI160X50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It generates a substantial 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for short-stroke clamping and high-tonnage pressing tasks.
This specific configuration incorporates a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches when a magnet is specified.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX50 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the robust 10053 N force required to seat bearings or form metal components in short-stroke press operations.
Industrial Clamping
Secures large molds or heavy workpieces during machining, utilizing its high pull force to maintain rigid positioning.
Pallet Halting
Acts as a high-power stopper mechanism on heavy-load conveyor lines, easily absorbing the impact of moving goods.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX50 the Right Cylinder?
When upgrading from a 125 mm bore, the 160 mm bore significantly increases output force from 6136 N to 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 200 mm bore yields 15708 N. For this 50 mm stroke, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal. Note that a standard SAI cylinder relies on live air pressure to maintain its position; if your cycle requires dead-stop holding without air, select the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variant. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify a 160 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT port thread, and your required mounting accessory.
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.
