About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600
The AirTAC SAI160X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It provides a substantial push force of 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for moving large masses across its 600 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods, offering a clean exterior that simplifies the mounting of accessories.
This specific configuration is built with a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (material code B) for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments. It utilizes PT tapered port threads and operates without a magnet. If your application requires position sensing, you would need the -S magnet option to utilize the dual sensor grooves machined into the barrel profile.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600 Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the robust 14074 N force required to actuate large mechanical presses and form heavy-gauge metal components.
Automotive Assembly
Ideal for lifting and positioning chassis frames or powertrain modules along high-capacity production lines.
Pallet Handling
Drives heavy-duty lifts and transfer units moving fully loaded pallets through automated distribution centers.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when a 125 mm cylinder falls short—generating only 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa—and you need the extra thrust for heavy payloads. Operating speed for this bore is 30-500 mm/s. Because this model features a 600 mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; always use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder carriage to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct dimensional replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders. Match your exact mounting interface using FA flanges or TC trunnion brackets, and ensure your air supply matches the G3/4 port. Note that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston at end-of-stroke; they do not lock the rod. If the system loses pressure, the load will drop unless you employ an external pilot check valve or the BSAI clamp-lock variant.
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 SAI160BX600 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the SAI160X600 generates a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
Yes, the SAI160X600 adheres strictly to ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, making it interchangeable with other standard ISO 15552 profile cylinders of the same bore size. Always verify your port and rod thread compatibility before installation.
