About the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X160
The AirTAC SAI50X160 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 825 N of pull force. Its 160 mm stroke provides the extended travel needed for mid-range positioning tasks, clamping, and automated ejection. Because it adheres to standardized mounting dimensions, it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
This configuration features a standard carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads. For environments requiring position feedback, the extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides to accept CMSE or DMSE switches when a magnet is specified. If your application involves high temperatures, you can opt for Viton (H) seals instead of the standard TPU.

Where the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X160 Is Used
Package Diverting
Provides the 982 N push force needed to deflect moderate-weight cartons on a sorting line, utilizing the 160 mm stroke to clear the conveyor belt path.
Component Clamping
Secures aluminum or composite workpieces during light machining, taking advantage of the stable ISO 15552 mounting interface to resist deflection.
Product Ejection
Pushes molded parts out of a press area, with the adjustable air cushions decelerating the piston smoothly at both stroke ends to prevent impact damage.
Is the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X160 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 50 mm bore is ideal when a 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 63 mm bore (1559 N) would be physically oversized. The 160 mm stroke hits a practical sweet spot for packaging and light assembly machinery. To match existing plumbing, specify the G1/4 PT port thread, and choose your mounting accessory from options like FA flange or TC trunnion.
Because this model lacks a magnet, it cannot host reed or solid-state sensors without modification. Additionally, a standard SAI cylinder relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position; if pneumatic supply is lost, the load will drift. For suspended loads requiring safety holding, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or an external rod lock.
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 SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X160 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. If pressure is increased to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 1374 N.
Yes, it is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Its mounting dimensions are standardized, allowing it to serve as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders without requiring custom brackets.
