The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 60mm stroke, G3/4 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 SAIJ160X60-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 30 to 60 mm, allowing you to dial in the exact end position without adding external stops. In the 160 mm bore class, it delivers a robust 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning.
This variant uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for improved corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel limit and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 30 to 60 mm clamping distance on large fixtures during setup, accommodating varying part sizes without changing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract stop during machine commissioning to prevent over-travel and ensure precise pressing force on heavy assemblies.
Quickly adjust the stroke end position on a conveyor sorting line when switching between different product lengths.
Select this 160 mm bore cylinder when an application requires substantial thrust—such as the 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa—combined with a highly specific, short travel distance. The adjustable 30 to 60 mm window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting operators fine-tune the retract position at commissioning rather than swapping to a different fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your process demands load-holding without continuous air pressure, a plain SAIJ is insufficient; you should look to the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
For an ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 160 mm bore, 60 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT G3/4 ports, and the SUS420J2 rod material. Because the standard speed range for this bore is 30-500 mm/s, ensure your flow controls are correctly sized. Mounting options are limited to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the 160 mm bore provides a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 13274 N. The maximum allowable operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 60 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a usable travel window of 30 to 60 mm. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without air pressure.
