About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-100S
The AirTAC SAIJ100X160-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 60 to 160 mm. Built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) and a -S magnet, it pairs directly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors via the dual-side barrel grooves. Delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy loads without external stops.
This 100 mm bore unit uses PT tapered ports and variable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop for product changeovers, meaning it will not hold a load safely without continuous live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-100S Is Used
Product Changeovers
Dial in the 60-160 mm travel window rapidly on packaging lines when switching container sizes, eliminating the need to physically swap out the entire actuator.
Machine Setup Calibration
Fine-tune the retract end-position during initial commissioning to achieve exact pressing forces, leveraging the 3927 N thrust capacity at 0.5 MPa.
Variable End-Stop Forming
Adjust the stroke on the fly for heavy-duty forming or bending applications where material thicknesses vary, using the rear stopper to set precise depths.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-100S the Right Cylinder?
Select this model when an application demands high thrust alongside flexible end-positioning, stepping up from a 80 mm bore that yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm adjustment range allows precise tuning during commissioning without swapping cylinders. For any stroke at or above 300 mm, you must use an external guide to prevent excessive rod side-loading, though this 160 mm stroke is well within safe limits.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, PT port threads, and the -S magnet. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. If true load-holding is required without air pressure, use a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead of relying on this adjuster.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-100S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 60 to 160 mm. This lets you fine-tune the end position at commissioning without adding external stops.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
