Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S
The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 600mm 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.

About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X600-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 500 to 600 mm for precise end-position tuning. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and reaching 18095 N at 0.9 MPa. The integrated -S magnet supports position feedback via AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors housed in the dual-side barrel grooves.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads (G3/4) for pneumatic connections. The rear adjustment screw acts purely as a mechanical stop to shorten the effective stroke during commissioning or product changeover. It is not a locking device; the cylinder cannot hold loads without live air pressure, so applications requiring true load-holding should utilize an external rod lock or the SAIL series.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S Is Used
Format Changeovers
Dial in the exact 500 to 600 mm end-stop on packaging lines without physically swapping cylinders when processing different carton sizes.
Heavy Press Tuning
Fine-tune the retraction end position during heavy press commissioning, using the 18095 N push force to seat components accurately.
Long Stroke Alignment
Secure precise end-positioning on long-stroke material handling equipment, using the rear stopper to trim travel for exact indexing.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore is appropriate when your application requires the 10053 N push force available at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 125 mm bore that provides 6136 N at the same pressure. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for machinery requiring variable end-stops during format size changes, avoiding the need to physically swap cylinders. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 600 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Because the 600 mm stroke is substantial, the 40 mm rod diameter and M36x2 thread provide rigidity, but an external guide is strongly recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the piston. Operating speed ranges from 30 to 500 mm/s, and the adjustable air cushions at both ends (50 mm cushion length) help dissipate kinetic energy during travel.
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 SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX600-100S FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder generates 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, and 18095 N at 0.9 MPa. The pull force at 0.5 MPa is 9425 N.
The rear mechanical stopper allows you to shorten the 600 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 500 to 600 mm. This stopper only sets the end position; it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
