Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160S-06B
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160S-06B is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø50mm bore, 160mm stroke and a built-in 4M210-06 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 SAIF50X160S-06B
The AirTAC SAIF50X160S-06A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a built-in 4M210-06 5/2 solenoid valve. This specific configuration features a 50mm bore, 160mm stroke, a PT1/8 valve port, and a DC24V terminal coil. The integrated valve provides a Cv of 0.78 (14.0 mm2 effective area) and eliminates the need for remote pneumatic plumbing. The cylinder body itself uses a 1/4 inch port, while the manifold connects via an O8 x O5 PU tube. Because the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa but the internal pilot valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, the practical working range for this assembled unit is 0.15-0.8 MPa.
Featuring a carbon steel piston rod and an -S magnet for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors, this model delivers 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. By default, the factory valve configuration retracts the rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised if needed. Drawing only 3.0 W of DC power with an IP65 rating and a 0.05 s response time, it switches itself from one signal, saving valuable panel space and tubing across decentralized machine stations.

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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 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 SAIF50X160S-06B Is Used
Decentralized Machine Stations
Ideal for large machines with multiple stations, allowing local cylinder control from a single DC24V signal without running long valve tubing back to a central manifold.
Space-Constrained Tooling
Perfect for tight retrofits where panel space is limited, integrating the 4M210 valve and manifold directly onto the cylinder body to eliminate separate valve hardware.
Material Handling Gates
Provides reliable 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa for diverting or sorting packages, with the built-in valve offering a fast 5 cycles per second response.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF50X160S-06B the Right Choice?
Choose this self-valved SAIF unit when you need to reduce tubing runs and panel footprint in decentralized installations; it replaces a separate cylinder and remote valve with a single 3.0 W DC24V terminal signal. If your application requires less force, step down to the 40mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa), or step up to the 63mm bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa) for higher load demands. When specifying replacements, match the 50mm bore, 160mm stroke, 1/4 inch cylinder port, 06 (1/8) valve port, DC24V voltage, terminal entry, PT thread, and -S magnet. Since the stroke is 160mm, ensure proper guide support to prevent excessive side loads on the rod. Remember that the built-in 5/2 valve routes air but does not hold the load without live pressure; for true mechanical load-holding, consider the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variants.
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 SAIF50X160S-06B FAQ
The 50mm bore generates 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The integrated 4M210-06 valve provides an effective area of 14.0 mm2 (Cv 0.78) for optimal airflow.
No, the 5/2 solenoid valve routes air but does not lock the load without live pressure. By default, the factory setting retracts the rod when the DC24V coil is energised, but the valve can be repositioned to extend-when-energised. For true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
