About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX80
The AirTAC SAI160X80 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for high-thrust short-stroke tasks. This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread.
As a genuine ISO 15552 standardized unit, the extruded aluminum barrel omits tie rods while maintaining complete mounting interface interchangeability. The barrel incorporates dual sensor grooves, allowing direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is added later. Adjustable air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy, though an external guide or related BSAI clamp-lock variant is required for position holding without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX80 Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Provides the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa required to form thick gauge metal sheets in automated stamping presses.
Industrial Clamping
Secures large cast iron molds during machining operations, utilizing the 9425 N pull force for rigid, zero-movement holding.
Plastic Injection Molding
Drives heavy ejector pins and core pulls in large-tonnage injection molds where high peak force and short strokes are standard.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX80 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore over the neighboring 200 mm bore (15708 N push at 0.5 MPa) is ideal when you need massive force in a slightly narrower footprint, while stepping down to the 125 mm bore (6136 N push) would underpower demanding press operations. The 80 mm stroke is short enough to avoid rod-bearing bending, keeping side-load stress minimal.
For direct ISO 15552 replacements, verify the 80 mm stroke, 160 mm bore, PT G3/4 port, and required mounting accessory (such as an FA flange or TC trunnion). Note that because this unit lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot host reed sensors without modification. Remember that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they will not hold a suspended load if air pressure drops completely.
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 SAI160AX80 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. It can reach up to 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa.
Yes. The SAI160X80 is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, meaning its mounting interface dimensions are fully interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders. Verify your PT G3/4 port and mounting accessory match before installation.
