The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX650-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 650mm 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 SAIJ160X650-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the travel window from 630 to 650 mm. Delivering a robust 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, it is engineered for heavy-duty positioning tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and this -S configuration includes a magnet for direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches.
This unit utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. It is important to note that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop for end-position tuning, not as a load-holding lock; for maintaining position without live air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the exact 630-650 mm end-of-stroke contact point for a large assembly press without machining custom external spacers.
Adjust the retract stop on the fly when switching a production line to accommodate a different pallet or fixture length.
Fine-tune the extended position of a heavy 14074 N load during machine commissioning to achieve perfect parallel alignment.
Choose this 160 mm bore when an application demands high thrust that exceeds the 80 mm bore class (which provides 3518 N at 0.7 MPa) but does not require the maximum 3204 kgf capacity of the 200 mm series. The adjustable 630-650 mm travel window is ideal for commissioning setups where a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder would require external stops to dial in the exact end position. Because the 650 mm stroke is substantial, an external guide rail is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 650 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and -S magnet attributes. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, intentionally omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. If the machine requires true load-holding without continuous air supply, this cylinder will not suffice and a SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant should be specified instead.
Quick checklist
At a 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. It can reach a maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel by up to 20 mm, creating a usable stroke window of 630 to 650 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
