Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø100mm bore, 160mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.

About the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B
The AirTAC SAIF100X160-08B is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve, delivering a robust 3927N push force at 0.5MPa. It features a carbon steel rod and PT tapered threads. Because the integrated valve operates at 0.15-0.8MPa, this defines the practical working pressure range for the assembled unit, even though the bare cylinder rates to 1.0MPa. The unit is driven by a DC24V terminal entry coil consuming 3.0W with an IP65 rating.
By mounting the valve directly via a manifold block and O10xO6.5 PU tubing, this unit switches itself from one coil signal, eliminating remote plumbing and saving panel space for decentralized installations. The factory default setting retracts the piston rod when the coil is energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve. Note the valve port is 1/4" while the cylinder port is 1/2".

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAIF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAIF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
Sized within the valve's 0.15–0.8 MPa range. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

SAIF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For load-holding use a SAIL (lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock).
Where the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B Is Used
Decentralized Automation
Ideal for large factory lines where running individual valve tubing is costly, allowing each cylinder to control itself via a single DC24V signal.
Heavy Clamping Stations
Provides substantial 3927N push force at 0.5MPa for heavy-duty clamping and holding operations within space-tight machine envelopes.
Machine Retrofitting
Perfect for upgrading existing ISO 15552 interchangeable setups where adding a separate valve manifold is structurally or spatially prohibitive.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B the Right Choice?
Choose this 100mm bore SAIF when your application requires high thrust that smaller bores cannot provide, such as heavy clamping or lifting, offering 3927N push at 0.5MPa compared to 2513N from an 80mm bore. This self-valved configuration is superior to a separate cylinder and remote valve when you need to minimize tubing across large machines and simplify wiring to a single DC24V terminal coil. Ensure you match the exact replacement specifications: 100mm bore, 160mm stroke, 1/4" valve port, 1/2" cylinder port, DC24V voltage, terminal entry, PT threads, and no magnet. For load-holding requirements, remember the 5/2 valve routes air but does not lock the load; consider the SAIL series instead.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Force at 0.15–0.8 MPa
- ✓ Coil voltage matches panel
- ✓ Terminal vs grommet entry
- ✓ Retract- or extend-when-energised
- ✓ Load-holding → SAIL / BSAI
Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-08B FAQ
The built-in 4M310-08 valve has an effective area of 25.0mm2 (Cv 1.40). The 100mm bore cylinder delivers 3927N push force and 3681N pull force at 0.5MPa, reaching up to 801kgf at 1.0MPa.
This specific SKU uses a DC24V terminal entry coil. The factory setting retracts the rod when energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve. Other voltages are available as separate SKUs.
