The AirTAC SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX1000S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAI160X1000-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a substantial 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore unit is built to drive massive loads across its 1000 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits traditional tie-rods, providing a clean exterior that resists debris buildup in harsh environments.
This specific configuration includes a -S magnet for seamless integration with CMSE or DMSE reed sensors along the dual-side mounting grooves. The piston rod is constructed from corrosion-resistant SUS304 stainless steel, and the PT tapered ports ensure a tight, leak-free pneumatic connection. It is a genuine AirTAC component, manufactured to exacting dimensional standards for global interchangeability.

Provides the 14074 N push force required to actuate large stamping dies and form heavy-gauge metal components reliably.
Drives large-scale structural clamping and positioning fixtures for automotive chassis welding and frame alignment.
Moves fully loaded heavy-duty pallets or industrial molds along 1000 mm tracks in automated warehousing systems.
Selecting this 160 mm bore over the smaller 125 mm option upgrades your output from 8590 N to 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, providing the extra thrust needed for large mold handling or heavy press operations. If your application requires even more force, stepping up to the 200 mm bore yields 21991 N. This model operates at a controlled speed range of 30-500 mm/s, which is optimal for moving heavy masses safely.
Because this cylinder features a 1000 mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. You must use an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder system to prevent rod-bearing damage and premature wear. Furthermore, the adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not hold the load. If your system loses air pressure, the cylinder will drift. For secure position holding without live pressure, specify the SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variant. As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 units with matching 160 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, G3/4 ports, and standard mounting accessories like FA or TC.
Quick checklist
This 160 mm bore cylinder provides 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at a 0.7 MPa operating pressure. At its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, the theoretical push force reaches 18095 N.
No, the standard SAI cylinder will drift or drop if air pressure is lost. The adjustable air cushions only slow the piston at the end of the stroke; they do not lock the position. For secure load holding, use the AirTAC SAIL or BSAI locking variants.
