About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX85
The AirTAC SAI160X85 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a substantial push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore unit handles high-load positioning with reliability. The 85 mm stroke provides a compact extension distance for robust machinery. This configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel.
As a tie-rod-less extruded aluminum profile cylinder, it integrates seamlessly into existing setups. The barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting, though this specific unit is supplied without a magnet. For applications requiring end-of-stroke locking without continuous air pressure, the SAIL variant offers an integrated air-released lock.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX85 Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the robust 10053 N push force required to actuate large mechanical presses and form heavy-gauge metal components.
Injection Molding Extraction
Utilizes the 85 mm stroke to positively extract large molded parts from heavy industrial injection molding machinery.
Large Assembly Presses
Drives heavy-duty assembly tooling where high thrust and rigid, precise component seating are mandatory.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX85 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder is ideal when 100 mm or 125 mm models (offering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) lack the necessary thrust. If your application requires less force, dropping to a 125 mm bore saves space and air consumption. This model uses PT tapered port threads and operates efficiently in the 30-500 mm/s speed range, supported by 50 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends.
Because the standard SAI is double-acting, it relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position; removing pressure allows the piston to drift. If your setup must hold a load securely during an air loss or emergency stop, specify the SAIL locking version or integrate an external pilot-operated check valve. Dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, matching the standard mounting footprint.
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.
