About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX170-10
The AirTAC SAIJ100X170-10 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers a robust 5497N push force at 0.7MPa, utilizing a 25mm piston rod and G1/2 porting. The integrated -10 adjustment code provides a 160-170mm usable travel window, allowing you to dial in the exact retract position without adding external stops.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. Sensor grooves on both sides of the extruded aluminum barrel accommodate CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches if a magnet is added later. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning, meaning it will not hold a load without continuous live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX170-10 Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Fine-tune the 160-170mm travel window during machine commissioning to achieve the exact seating depth for press-fit operations without swapping physical hardware.
Product Changeovers
Quickly adjust the retract end-stop by up to 10mm on automated lines when accommodating slight variations in incoming product dimensions.
High-Force Clamping
Leverage the 5497N push force at 0.7MPa to secure heavy workpieces, using the rear stopper to precisely set the clamp's retracted clearance.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX170-10 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore actuator when an application requires high thrust combined with precise end-position tuning during commissioning. If 5497N at 0.7MPa is excessive, stepping down to an 80mm bore yields 3518N; if more force is needed, a 125mm bore provides 8590N. Choose this adjustable-stroke SAIJ model over a fixed SAI cylinder when product changeovers require slight modifications to the retract distance.
For a direct ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 100mm bore, 170mm nominal stroke, 10mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and SUS420J2 rod material. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the 170mm stroke is relatively short, side-load stress is minimal, but external guides are still recommended for heavy lateral loads. Note that for load-holding without live air, you must use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, or switch to a SAIL or BSAI cylinder.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ100AX170-10 FAQ
At 0.7MPa operating pressure, this 100mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 5497N and a pull force of 3681N. At 0.9MPa, the push force increases to 7068N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from the 170mm nominal length down to 160mm. This creates a 160-170mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning, but it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
