About the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX160
The AirTAC SAI50X160 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and 160mm stroke. It provides a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for mid-range automation tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel eliminates protruding tie rods for a clean exterior.
This specific unit is configured with an SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid environments. It uses PT tapered port threads and lacks a standard magnet, meaning it is optimized purely for actuation rather than position sensing.

Where the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX160 Is Used
Material Handling
Drives package diverters and sorting gates on packaging lines requiring 982 N of push force.
Assembly Stations
Actuates clamping arms and press fixtures where a 160mm stroke provides adequate travel.
Logistics Automation
Positions pallet stops and lifting mechanisms within automated storage and retrieval systems.
Is the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX160 the Right Cylinder?
If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 40mm bore yields 628 N at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 63mm bore provides 1559 N. Because this is a 160mm stroke, it falls under standard lengths and does not inherently require external guiding, though side loads should always be minimized. Remember that a standard SAI cylinder relies on live air pressure to maintain its position; if pneumatic supply is lost, the rod will drift. For fail-safe load holding, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock. To match this ISO 15552 mounting interface, you need a 50mm bore, 160mm stroke, G1/4 port, and your chosen mounting accessory like an FA flange.
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.
