About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX120S
The AirTAC SAI160X120-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore unit handles substantial loads with ease. The 120 mm stroke provides the precise extension needed for high-force clamping and pressing operations.
Configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance, this model includes a built-in magnet for direct compatibility with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, simplifying switch mounting. For applications requiring position holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI locking variants.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX120S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa required to form and stamp thick metal components in automated fabrication lines.
Injection Mold Clamping
Secures heavy industrial molds and tooling with precise 120 mm stroke control and robust 160 mm bore thrust.
Press Fit Assembly
Drives large bearings and bushings into heavy machinery housings, utilizing the stainless steel rod for durability in harsh environments.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX120S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore cylinder when 100 mm bore models (providing 5497 N push at 0.5 MPa) cannot generate the required thrust. If the 120 mm stroke is slightly too short, the 160 mm bore can accommodate standard strokes up to 1500 mm. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s.
This model features PT tapered port threads and a G3/4 port size. As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders using standard FA, FB, LB, or TC mounting accessories. Note that a plain SAI does not hold its load when air pressure is lost; use an external rod lock or the SAIL variant if fail-safe holding is required.
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.
