About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-50
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty applications requiring exact end-position tuning. It features a robust 160 mm bore and a nominal 60 mm stroke, paired with a rear adjusting screw that provides a usable travel window of 10 to 60 mm. This built-in stopper allows you to dial in the exact retract distance during commissioning without swapping out the cylinder or adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel (code A) for superior corrosion resistance.
Delivering substantial thrust, this bore size generates 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and up to 18095 N of push force at 0.9 MPa. The 40 mm diameter rod and M36x2 thread provide a rugged interface capable of handling significant side loads, while the adjustable end-stop acts purely as a travel limiter and does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, an external rod lock or related types like SAIL or BSAI should be utilized.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-50 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Fine-tune the retract distance on heavy pressing operations to accommodate material thickness variations without recalibrating the entire machine.
Product Size Changeover
Rapidly adjust the end-stop position on automated lines when switching between different product sizes or profiles.
Machine Commissioning
Dial in the exact 10 to 60 mm travel window during initial machine setup to perfect mechanical timing without external shims.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-50 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore model when your application demands high force alongside precise retract tuning, yielding a 10 to 60 mm adjustable travel window. If your setup requires less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore provides 5734 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to a 200 mm bore offers 15080 N of pull. The SAIJ series is chosen over the fixed-stroke SAI when machine designs require variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers.
To guarantee a seamless ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 160 mm bore, 60 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and your preferred mounting style. The SAIJ utilizes a specific mounting subset including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options. Because this configuration omits the -S magnet, it does not support CMSE or DMSE sensors without modification.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX60-50 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to trim the effective stroke back from the 60 mm nominal length, creating a usable travel window of 10 to 60 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
