About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX185S
The AirTAC SAI160X185-S 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 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. The 185 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order dimension tailored for specific mid-range travel requirements.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for CMSE or DMSE sensor switches. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, while the PT tapered port threads ensure a robust, leak-free pneumatic connection in demanding industrial environments.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX185S Is Used
Heavy Metal Forming
Provides the robust 10053 N push force required for stamping, bending, and forming thick metal sheets in automotive and structural fabrication.
Large Assembly Presses
Drives heavy-duty assembly tooling and large-scale clamping fixtures where high thrust and reliable 185 mm travel are critical for part consolidation.
Pallet Handling Systems
Actuates heavy load diverters and robust lifting mechanisms in high-capacity conveyor networks, utilizing its 9425 N pull force for safe retraction.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX185S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder is ideal when an application requires significantly more force than the 125 mm bore (8590 N push at 0.5 MPa) but less than the massive 200 mm bore (21991 N push at 0.7 MPa). For applications needing position holding or fail-safe load securement without continuous air pressure, integrate the SAIL locking variant or an external BSAI clamp-lock cylinder.
As a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it provides a direct replacement for any standard 160 mm bore, 185 mm stroke ISO 15552 unit. Ensure your setup matches the G3/4 port size, M36x2 rod thread, and utilize the appropriate FA flange or TC trunnion mounting accessories. The integrated magnet (-S) allows for direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE proximity switches.

- ✓ 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 SAI160BX185S FAQ
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAI160X185-S generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
