About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX475S
The AirTAC SAI160X475-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 actuator is built to move substantial masses. The 475 mm stroke provides the extended travel required for large-scale material handling. Its extruded aluminum barrel omits traditional tie-rods, presenting a clean profile that integrates seamlessly into modern machinery.
This specific configuration includes a -S magnet for non-contact position sensing via CMSE or DMSE switches fitted into the dual-side barrel grooves. Furthermore, it is equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance, and utilizes PT tapered port threads to ensure a reliable, leak-free pneumatic connection in demanding plant environments.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX475S Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the high thrust necessary to drive large stamping presses and heavy-gauge metal forming operations.
Pallet Handling
Moves heavy loaded pallets along transfer lines, utilizing the extended 475 mm stroke for smooth transitions.
Large Clamp Fixtures
Secures oversized components during machining or welding, relying on the robust 14074 N push force.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX475S the Right Cylinder?
Choosing this 160 mm bore makes sense when a 125 mm cylinder (offering 8590 N at 0.7 MPa) lacks the thrust for your heaviest loads. Conversely, stepping up to a 200 mm bore provides 21991 N if your application demands even greater capacity. Because the 475 mm stroke generates a long unsupported rod extension, it is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; utilizing an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct replacement for other standard ISO 15552 actuators. To match this exact unit, specify a 160 mm bore, 475 mm stroke, PT G3/4 port, and the -S magnet option. If the machinery must hold a load vertically during an air pressure loss, note that the standard adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston and do not act as a brake; an external pilot-operated check valve or the AirTAC SAIL locking variant is required for true position 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.
