About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX145
The AirTAC SAI160X145 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates a substantial push force of 14074 N, making it ideal for high-mass handling. This specific 145 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order dimension tailored for specialized travel requirements.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B), this variant provides exceptional corrosion resistance for harsh or washdown environments. It features tapered PT ports and utilizes adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. For applications requiring position holding without air pressure, the SAIL variant offers an integrated air-released lock.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX145 Is Used
Heavy Metal Stamping
Provides the 14074 N force at 0.5 MPa required to actuate large press dies and form thick-gauge steel components securely.
Automotive Assembly Jigs
Shifts substantial chassis or powertrain fixtures along the 145 mm travel path, utilizing the SUS304 rod for resilience against machining fluids.
Pallet Handling Gates
Actuates heavy-duty diverter gates and automated pallet stops in high-throughput distribution centers requiring robust force.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX145 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore is optimal when the 125 mm class (8590 N push at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient, but the 200 mm bore is oversized. This unit features a PT port thread type and operates without a magnet; adding the -S option enables CMSE or DMSE sensor switches in the dual barrel grooves for position feedback.
Because the stroke is below 300 mm, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimized compared to longer extrusions. However, the standard double-acting design relies on continuous air pressure; if the air supply is lost, the piston will drift. Use an external pilot-operated check valve or the BSAI clamp-lock variant for fail-safe load holding.
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.
