Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF63X160-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF63X160-10A is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø63mm 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 SAIF63X160-10A
The AirTAC SAIF63X160-10A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder integrating a 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve. This built-in valve features a 30.0 mm2 orifice (Cv 1.68) and operates via an AC220V terminal connection, consuming 3.5 VA. The manifold links the valve to the cylinder using PU tubing (O10 x O6.5). Because the valve limits pressure, the practical operating range for the assembled SAIF unit is 0.15-0.8 MPa, despite the bare cylinder rating of 1.0 MPa.
This 63mm bore generates 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and handles speeds of 30-800 mm/s. By default, the factory setting retracts the piston rod when the coil is energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve. It eliminates the need for a separate remote valve, drastically reducing tubing and panel space for 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 (Ø63mm)

| 0.7 MPa | 2182 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 SAIF63X160-10A Is Used
Decentralized Assembly Stations
Eliminates the need to run long air lines back to a central manifold. The integrated 4M310 valve switches directly at the cylinder, saving panel space and simplifying machine wiring.
Mid-Force Clamping Fixtures
Delivers 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for holding and clamping medium-sized workpieces securely during machining or welding processes.
Retrofit Automation Upgrades
Ideal for upgrading older machines where adding a new valve island is impractical. The AC220V terminal coil provides a direct, single-signal connection to the cylinder.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF63X160-10A the Right Choice?
Select this self-valved unit when you need to consolidate wiring and eliminate remote valve plumbing across large machines. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50mm bore yields 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; if you need more power, the 80mm bore provides 2513 N. Remember that the 5/2 valve routes air but does not lock the load without live pressure—use a SAIL lock cylinder for position holding. For exact replacement, match the 63mm bore, 160mm stroke, 3/8" valve port code, PT3/8" cylinder port, AC220V coil, terminal entry, and no magnet (-S). Since the 160mm stroke is under 300mm, standard side-load concerns are minimal, but always ensure proper guide alignment.
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 SAIF63X160-10A FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 63mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N. The integrated 4M310-10 valve has a Cv of 1.68 to handle the required airflow.
Yes. The factory setting retracts the rod when the AC220V coil is energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by physically repositioning the 5/2 valve on the manifold block. This allows the cylinder to control itself without a separate remote valve.
