Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160S-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160S-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 SAIF100X160S-10A
The AirTAC SAIF100X160S-10A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve. This specific SKU is configured with a PT3/8 valve port delivering a Cv of 1.68, driven by an AC220V terminal-entry coil that draws 3.5 VA with an IP65 rating and a 0.05s response. Because the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa but the internal pilot valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, the practical working pressure for this assembled unit is 0.15-0.8 MPa. Delivering 3927N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it provides massive output for heavy-duty tasks.
By mounting the valve directly via a manifold block and O10xO6.5 PU tubing, this unit switches itself from a single coil signal, eliminating remote plumbing and saving panel space for decentralized installations. The factory setting retracts the carbon-steel piston rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. The -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise position feedback.

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)

| 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 SAIF100X160S-10A Is Used
Decentralized Automation Stations
Ideal for large machines where running individual valve lines is costly, providing localized 3927N thrust control via a single AC220V signal.
Heavy Material Pressing
The 100mm bore delivers powerful pushing force for pressing, clamping, and forming tasks directly at the workstation without external valves.
Machine Retrofitting
Retrofit older pneumatic lines easily; the built-in 4M310-10 valve and PT3/8 threads simplify upgrading to self-switching localized control.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X160S-10A the Right Choice?
Select this 100mm bore model when a 80mm bore (providing 2513N push at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient for your load requirements. The self-valved SAIF architecture beats a separate cylinder and remote valve setup when you need to minimize tubing across decentralized machine stations, offering a single-wire AC220V terminal connection and integrated 5/2 pilot control. Remember that the 5/2 valve routes air and is not a lock; if your application requires dead-load holding without live pressure, consider the AirTAC SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead.
When ordering a replacement, verify the 100mm bore, 160mm stroke, 4M310-10 valve with a 1/2 cylinder port, AC220V voltage, PT tapered threads, terminal entry, and the -S magnet option. The 160mm stroke is well within standard limits, but always ensure proper guide rails to prevent side-load wear on the rod.
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 SAIF100X160S-10A FAQ
The 100mm bore cylinder provides 3927N push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The integrated 4M310-10 5/2 valve has an effective area of 30.0 mm2 (Cv 1.68) and a max frequency of 4 cycles/sec.
No, the 5/2 solenoid valve routes air but does not lock the load without live pressure. By default, the rod retracts when the AC220V coil is energised, but it can be reconfigured to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve.
