About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-10S
The AirTAC SAIJ100X160-10-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear mechanical stroke adjuster. It provides a 150-160 mm usable travel window by allowing you to trim up to 10 mm off the 160 mm nominal stroke, enabling precise end-position tuning at commissioning without external stoppers. In the 100 mm bore class, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a built-in magnet for position sensing. The standard extruded aluminum barrel has sensor grooves on both sides, seamlessly accepting AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. Fluid ports are PT tapered thread (G1/2), and the cylinder supports a speed range of 30-800 mm/s with adjustable air cushions at both ends.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-10S Is Used
End-Position Calibration
Dial in the exact 150-160 mm travel window during machine commissioning to perfect product indexing without adding bulky external mechanical stops.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the rear stopper by up to 10 mm to accommodate slight variations in incoming material thickness or package sizes on a production line.
Heavy-Duty Positioning
Leverage the 3927 N push force and SUS420J2 stainless rod for robust, precise clamping and holding in demanding machining or assembly fixtures.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX160-10S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore adjustable cylinder when an application requires exact end-stop calibration during machine setup or product changeover, avoiding the need to physically swap a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If the 3927 N thrust at 0.5 MPa is excessive for your load, step down to an 80 mm bore, which yields 2513 N of push force. Conversely, if your process demands more power, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N. Remember that the rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true fail-safe load holding, consider an SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder instead.
When ordering a replacement for an ISO 15552 footprint, verify the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment range, PT G1/2 port, and the -S magnet option. Because the 160 mm stroke is relatively short, side-loading stress is minimal, but always ensure the piston rod is properly aligned with the load guide to prevent premature seal wear. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR variants found in some other series.

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 SAIJ100AX160-10S FAQ
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum rated pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 10 mm from the 160 mm nominal length, creating a 150-160 mm travel window. This stopper fine-tunes the end position but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
