About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600S
The AirTAC SAI160X600-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore unit is built to manage substantial loads. The 600 mm stroke provides extensive travel distance for large-scale positioning tasks. Equipped with a -S magnet, it integrates seamlessly with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches via the dual-side grooves on its extruded aluminum barrel.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (material code B), offering superior corrosion resistance for harsh or washdown environments. It utilizes a PT tapered G3/4 port thread and includes adjustable air cushions at both ends to absorb impact energy. Operating efficiently at speeds of 30-500 mm/s, it serves as a direct replacement for any ISO 15552 profile cylinder interface.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Presses
Provides the high thrust and extended travel needed to actuate large forming dies and heavy-duty stamping machinery in metal fabrication lines.
Automotive Assembly Lifts
Ideal for lifting heavy chassis components or powertrain modules, utilizing the 600 mm stroke to move substantial weight across automotive production stations.
Bulk Material Diverters
Drives large-scale diverter arms on heavy-duty conveyor systems, where the SUS304 rod material ensures longevity in dusty or mildly corrosive industrial environments.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160BX600S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder makes sense when the 100 mm bore (offering 3927 N at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust for your heavy lifting, but you want to avoid stepping up to the massive 200 mm bore (15708 N at 0.5 MPa). The 600 mm stroke is excellent for long-travel material handling, though at this length side-load management is critical. Long unsupported rods are prone to bending under lateral stress, so utilizing an external guide rail or a fully guided cylinder carriage is strongly recommended to prevent premature wear.
For applications requiring position holding without constant air pressure, note that the standard SAI relies on live air to maintain its load; power loss will cause drift. In such cases, the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (bidirectional clamp-lock) variants are better choices. This SAI160X600-S uses a PT G3/4 port, an M36x2 rod thread, and is fully interchangeable with standard ISO 15552 mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions.
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.
