About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-40
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that trims the effective travel. With a 60 mm nominal stroke and a 40 mm adjustment code, it provides a usable 20-60 mm travel window for precise end-position tuning at commissioning. It delivers a robust 14074 N pull force at 0.7 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This variant uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. It operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s and features a PT G3/4 port, while the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a position lock.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-40 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 20-60 mm end-position during machine commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without changing the cylinder.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract stop for different product sizes on a packaging line, utilizing the 40 mm trim range to avoid mechanical rebuilds.
High-Force Positioning
Leverage the 18095 N pull force at 0.9 MPa to move heavy jigs into exact alignment, relying on the rear stop for precise repeatability.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-40 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when an application demands high force—delivering 10053 N pull at 0.5 MPa—within a compact 20-60 mm adjustable stroke window. If the force requirement is lower, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The rear adjustment screw allows you to dial in the exact end-stop without swapping cylinders or adding external stops, which is ideal for product changeovers. For any load-holding requirements without live air pressure, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is only a stop.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and SUS420J2 rod material. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Although the stroke is short, the 40 mm diameter rod and M36x2 thread handle high side loads effectively.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-40 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 60 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 20-60 mm, enabling fine-tuning of the end position without adding external stops.
At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 14074 N and the pull force is 9425 N. At 0.9 MPa, it provides 18095 N of push force and 14074 N of pull force.
