About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX165S
The AirTAC SAI160X165-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 is built to move substantial loads. The 165 mm stroke provides the precise extension needed for high-capacity clamping and lifting tasks.
This configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments. It includes a magnet for direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE sensor switches along the dual grooves of the extruded aluminum barrel. The piston operates at 30-500 mm/s, utilizing PT tapered ports and adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX165S Is Used
Heavy Machinery Clamping
Provides the 14074 N force required to secure large steel fabrications during heavy industrial machining and welding operations.
Metal Forming Press
Drives short-stroke pressing and stamping tasks where the 160 mm bore delivers the necessary impact without consuming excessive space.
Pallet Lift Stations
Lifts loaded pallets in high-throughput logistics hubs, utilizing the SUS304 rod to resist moisture and washdown chemicals.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX165S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when an application demands significantly more thrust than the 100 mm bore (which provides 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa) but does not require the extreme 21991 N output of the 200 mm variant. The 165 mm stroke is ideal for short, high-force movements. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, rod-bearing bending is minimal, though external guides are always recommended for heavy off-center loads.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct replacement for other standard cylinders with identical mounting dimensions. It uses a PT port thread and can be fitted with TC trunnion or FA flange accessories. Note that standard double-acting cylinders drift when air pressure is lost; for dead-load holding, specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant instead of relying on the cushion.
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 SAI160BX165S FAQ
