About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX100S
The AirTAC SAI160X100-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 high-mass payloads. The 100 mm stroke provides rapid extension and retraction cycles without excessive rod overhang. As a genuine AirTAC component, it ensures reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (material code B), offering superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel, making it ideal for humid or chemically active settings. The -S suffix indicates an integrated magnet for position sensing, allowing seamless compatibility with CMSE and DMSE series reed switches housed within the dual sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel. Fluid and air connections utilize PT tapered threading.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX100S Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Provides the immense 10053 N thrust at 0.5 MPa required to actuate large mechanical presses and form thick gauge metal components.
Automotive Assembly Jigs
Clamps heavy chassis subframes securely during robotic welding, utilizing the SUS304 rod to resist weld spatter and plant humidity.
Pallet Diverting
Drives high-inertia diverter arms on heavy-duty packaging lines, relying on the 50 mm adjustable cushions to stop loads smoothly.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX100S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SAI160X100-S is optimal when an application demands high thrust that exceeds the 7068 N push capacity of the 100 mm bore variant. If the 100 mm stroke is insufficient, stepping up to a standard 150 mm or 200 mm option provides greater travel while maintaining the same robust G3/4 port and 50 mm cushion length. The adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the massive moving mass smoothly, but remember that a plain cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; for fail-safe load holding, consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (bidirectional clamp-lock) variants.
Because it adheres strictly to the ISO 15552 mounting interface, this model serves as a direct dimensional direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. When retrofitting, verify the 160 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, G3/4 PT port, and your required mounting accessory—such as an LB foot bracket or TC trunnion. Ensure you pair the -S magnet option with corresponding CMSE or DMSE sensors for automated feedback.

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 SAI160BX100S FAQ
At a standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. When operating at 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
Yes, the SAI160X100-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 profile standards. You can drop it into existing ISO 15552 mounting interfaces, but always verify the G3/4 port and 100 mm stroke match your current setup.
