Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10A is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø100mm bore, 160mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-10 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 SAIF100X160-10A
The AirTAC SAIF100X160-10A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve. This built-in valve delivers a 1.68 Cv flow rate through a 3/8 inch valve port, driving the 100mm bore to a substantial 3927N push force at 0.5 MPa. Configured with an AC220V terminal coil drawing 3.5 VA, it activates in 0.05 seconds. The manifold connects to the cylinder via PU tubing (O10 x O6.5), and while the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, the practical operating range for this valved assembly is 0.15-0.8 MPa.
By integrating the valve directly onto the profile barrel, this unit eliminates remote plumbing and saves panel space, making it perfect for decentralized stations across large machines. The factory setting retracts the piston rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. It uses a carbon steel rod with PT threaded ports and lacks a magnet. Remember that the 5/2 valve routes air and does not hold loads without live pressure; for locking needs, consider the SAIL series.

| 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 SAIF100X160-10A Is Used
Large Machine Decentralization
Eliminates the need for long pneumatic runs from a central control panel by switching locally via the integrated 4M310 valve on large-scale manufacturing lines.
High-Force Clamping
Provides up to 5497N of push force at 0.7 MPa for securing heavy workpieces during machining, utilizing the 100mm profile barrel for robust actuation.
Retrofit Automation
Ideal for upgrading existing machinery where routing new valve tubing is costly, as the AC220V terminal coil only requires a single electrical signal to cycle the cylinder.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10A the Right Choice?
Choose this 100mm bore SAIF when your application demands high thrust up to 3927N at 0.5 MPa (or 5497N at 0.7 MPa) alongside decentralized control. If you need less force, stepping down to the 80mm bore yields 2513N push force at 0.5 MPa, but this SAIF100X160-10A provides the maximum push capacity in the series. The self-valved design beats a separate cylinder and remote valve setup by cutting tubing runs and wiring complexity, requiring only a single AC220V signal to operate. The 4M310 valve hits a max frequency of 4 cycles per second. Ensure your replacement matches the 160mm stroke, 1/2 inch cylinder port, 3/8 inch valve port, AC220V terminal connection, PT threads, and no magnet.
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 SAIF100X160-10A FAQ
The 100mm bore generates 3927N push force at 0.5 MPa and 5497N at 0.7 MPa. The built-in 4M310-10 5/2 valve has an effective area of 30.0 mm2 with a Cv of 1.68.
No separate valve is needed; the internal pilot 5/2 valve switches from a single AC220V signal. It holds its last position via pilot pressure but does not lock the load mechanically without live air pressure. The factory default retracts the rod when energised, which can be reconfigured to extend.
