The AirTAC SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX700 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 700mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI160X700 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It delivers a substantial 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for moving large masses over its 700 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that simplifies mounting and sensor placement.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced durability against moisture and minor corrosion. Fluid connections use PT tapered threads, requiring proper sealing tape or liquid sealant during installation. Because no magnet is specified, this unit is configured for purely pneumatic operation without internal position sensing.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides the high force necessary for pressing and stamping heavy gauge metal components in automated fabrication lines.
Actuates large diverter arms on heavy-duty conveyor systems, moving fully loaded pallets efficiently across transport lanes.
Handles positioning of major vehicle subassemblies, utilizing the extended 700 mm stroke to move large chassis components.
Selecting this 160 mm bore provides 10053 N of push force at a conservative 0.5 MPa, a significant step up from the 125 mm bore which offers 6136 N. If your application requires less force, stepping down reduces air consumption and physical footprint. For this 700 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length is substantial; side loads will cause rod-bearing bending and premature seal wear. Implementing an external guide rail or using a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent mechanical failure.
This model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. When replacing a unit, verify the 700 mm stroke, G3/4 port size, and mounting accessory type (such as TC trunnion or LB foot). Note that a plain SAI does not hold its load when air pressure is exhausted or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. If your machinery requires position holding without live pressure, specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock.
Quick checklist
The SAI160X700 cylinder provides a push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, and 18095 N at 0.9 MPa. Its maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
Yes, the SAI160X700 is a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making its mounting interface dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 standard cylinders. Ensure your existing port size matches the G3/4 thread.
