About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX600
The AirTAC SAI160X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder built for heavy-duty operations. It generates a substantial 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, utilizing a 600 mm stroke to move massive loads. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, ensuring a rigid yet streamlined structure that handles high-pressure cycles effortlessly.
This specific unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance in humid or washdown environments. It uses PT tapered port threading and lacks a magnet, meaning it is optimized purely for mechanical actuation rather than electronic position sensing.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX600 Is Used
Heavy Metal Forming
Provides the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa required to actuate large stamping presses and heavy metal forming dies over a 600 mm travel distance.
Bulk Material Diversion
Handles the high kinetic energy of large palletized goods or bulk material flows on heavy-duty conveyor lines, using adjustable cushions to stop 600 mm strokes smoothly.
Automotive Assembly Jigs
Drives robust welding fixtures and large component positioning jigs where the SUS420J2 stainless steel rod offers reliable resistance against splatter and plant humidity.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX600 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore unit is appropriate when the 100 mm bore class (providing 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa) is insufficient for your load requirements. The 600 mm stroke falls within the standard 1500 mm maximum for this bore, but at this length the unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. Implementing an external guide rail or utilizing a guided cylinder module is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal wear and rod-bearing failure.
It integrates seamlessly as a direct replacement for any ISO 15552 mounting footprint, utilizing a PT G3/4 port. Note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at end-of-stroke; if your machinery loses air pressure, the load will drift. For fail-safe vertical positioning, pair this cylinder with an external pilot-operated check valve or specify the BSAI clamp-lock variant.
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.
