About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX160-10
The AirTAC SAIJ100X160-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 150-160 mm usable travel window, allowing you to trim the effective stroke by up to 10 mm during commissioning without adding external stops. Belonging to the 100 mm bore class, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This model incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and ships with PT tapered port threads (G1/2). The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX160-10 Is Used
Machine Setup Calibration
Dial in the exact 150-160 mm end position during initial machine commissioning without swapping out physical spacers.
Product Line Changeover
Quickly adapt the stroke end-stop by up to 10 mm when switching between slightly different product sizes on the same conveyor line.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Leverage the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to secure heavy workpieces, using the fine adjustment to set the precise clamping depth.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX160-10 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore actuator when your application requires 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N, while a 125 mm bore provides 6136 N for heavier requirements. The 10 mm rear adjustment screw is ideal for fine-tuning the end position on product changeovers, but remember it acts only as a travel stop. It does not hold the load without live air; for true pneumatic locking, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
Because the 160 mm stroke is below the 300 mm threshold, side-load stress on the 25 mm rod is naturally minimized. However, for any unsupported loads approaching the maximum standard stroke limit, an external guide is recommended to prevent rod binding. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552.
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 SAIJ100BX160-10 FAQ
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. It can reach up to 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the nominal 160 mm stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a 150-160 mm usable travel window. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
