Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10B
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10B 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 SAIF100X160-10B
The AirTAC SAIF100X160-10B is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve. This specific configuration utilizes a DC24V terminal electrical entry coil consuming 3.0 W, protected to IP65 with a 0.05 s response time. The built-in valve provides an effective flow rate of 30.0 mm2 (Cv 1.68) and operates at a maximum frequency of 4 cycles per second. Because the valve is mounted directly via a manifold block using O10 x O6.5 PU tubing, it eliminates the need for remote plumbing and drastically reduces panel space.
Although the base cylinder itself is rated for 1.0 MPa, the practical operating pressure for this assembled SAIF unit is 0.15-0.8 MPa due to the internal pilot valve limits. Delivering substantial thrust, it generates 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. By factory default, the piston rod retracts when the coil is energised, but this behavior can be reconfigured to extend-when-energised simply by repositioning the valve.

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)

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 SAIF100X160-10B Is Used
Decentralized Assembly Stations
Ideal for large automated lines where local air control saves tubing and simplifies wiring across long distances.
High-Force Pressing
Provides up to 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa for clamping or pressing heavy components without external valves.
Machine Retrofits
Perfect for upgrading existing ISO 15552 setups where adding a separate valve island would require new panel space.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160-10B the Right Choice?
Select this 100mm bore model when your application requires high force (3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) alongside decentralized control. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to an 80mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, which might be a lighter, more economical choice. The SAIF100X160-10B excels in large machines where running separate valve tubing back to a central manifold is costly or space-prohibitive. Ensure your control system matches the DC24V terminal coil specification. Note that while the 5/2 valve routes air to drive the cylinder, it does not physically hold or lock the load without live pressure; for true mechanical load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. When ordering replacements, verify the 160mm stroke, 1/2 inch cylinder port, 3/8 inch valve port, PT thread type, carbon steel rod, and terminal entry.
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 SAIF100X160-10B FAQ
The 100mm bore generates 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. The integrated 4M310-10 valve has a 30.0 mm2 orifice with a Cv of 1.68.
It uses a 5/2 solenoid valve; this specific model is DC24V with a terminal entry. By factory default, the rod retracts when the coil is energised, but it can be reconfigured to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve. It eliminates the need for a separate remote valve.
