About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX135S
The AirTAC SAI160X135-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It provides a robust push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for pressing, lifting, and clamping massive payloads. The 135 mm stroke is a made-to-order length tailored for specialized mid-stroke machinery processes.
This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance in harsh or washdown environments. It features PT tapered port threads and is equipped with a magnet (-S) for seamless integration with CMSE or DMSE sensor switches along the dual grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX135S Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Generates 14074 N at 0.7 MPa to form thick metal sheets and drive robust stamping dies.
Automotive Component Pressing
Uses the 135 mm stroke for precise pressing and seating of heavy automotive sub-assemblies.
Washdown Packaging Equipment
The SUS304 rod endures corrosive washdown environments while lifting large palletized loads.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX135S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore is ideal when 125 mm (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust for your heaviest tooling, but you want to avoid the bulk of a 200 mm unit. Because this model uses a non-standard 135 mm stroke, it is manufactured to order to fit precise machine spacing requirements.
For any application requiring the load to remain securely held without continuous air pressure, note that a standard cylinder will drift. The adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not lock it. To hold position, specify the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or utilize an external pilot-operated check valve. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 component, it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, utilizing a G3/4 port and standard mounting accessories like TC trunnions or CA clevises.
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.
Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX135S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 15708 N.
No, a standard double-acting SAI cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at the stroke ends; they do not act as a brake. For position holding, use the SAIL lock variant or an external rod lock.
