The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX160-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 160mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ100X160-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 130 to 160 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 160 mm stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning without swapping hardware. Delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy loads with precision.
This variant includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and uses a PT G1/2 tapered port. The extruded aluminum barrel integrates sensor grooves on both sides, and the -S magnet option enables position detection via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches. It supports a mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Dial in the exact 130 to 160 mm travel distance during machine setup to accommodate varying product sizes without adding external stopper blocks.
Quickly reconfigure actuation endpoints on packaging lines by turning the rear adjustment screw, minimizing downtime between different package formats.
Leverage the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa for clamping and forming operations, using the adjustable stop to prevent over-travel on delicate tooling.
Choose this 100 mm bore when a 63 mm bore (offering 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa) cannot meet your force requirements, but you want to avoid stepping up to a 125 mm body. The 30 mm rear adjuster screw acts purely as a travel stop to fine-tune end positions on product changeovers; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding without continuous air, consider an external rod lock or related SAIL and BSAI series.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, verify the 160 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT G1/2 port, and -S magnet. The 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 rod thread provide robust side-load capacity, though any stroke of 300 mm or more requires an external guide to prevent rod deflection.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
The rear adjuster screw mechanically limits the retract stroke, creating a usable travel window of 130 to 160 mm. It functions as an end-position stop for fine-tuning and does not function as a lock or brake to hold the load without air pressure.
