The AirTAC SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX135 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 135mm 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 SAI160X135 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It delivers a substantial push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for demanding 135 mm stroke actuation tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that resists contamination.
This specific configuration is built with a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance and includes PT tapered port threads. While standard adjustable air cushions manage end-of-stroke impact, operators requiring dead-stop positioning under zero air pressure should integrate the SAIL locking variant or an external rod lock.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides the high kinetic energy and 10053 N push force required to form thick metal sheets in automated stamping presses.
Reliable linear motion for operating oversized industrial process valves that demand high torque and a 135 mm stroke.
Handles heavy pallets on high-throughput packaging lines by providing robust shifting force in material handling systems.
Selecting this 160 mm bore over the neighboring 125 mm bore (which yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) is justified when your application requires moving substantially heavier payloads or overcoming high friction. The 135 mm stroke is well below the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke, keeping the rod bearing stress manageable without requiring external guides.
Because the standard SAI is double-acting, it relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position. If your system experiences pressure loss, the cylinder will drift, as the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends rather than locking it. For drop-prevention, explore the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock series. Ensure your mounting interface matches the ISO 15552 dimensions, utilizing accessories like the TC trunnion or FA flange, and verify your port size is G3/4.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. If operated at 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
Yes, the SAI160X135 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can drop it in to replace other ISO 15552 profile cylinders with matching 160 mm bore and 135 mm stroke specifications.
