The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX650-30S 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 SAIJ160X650-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 620-650 mm usable travel window. It delivers substantial thrust, pushing 14074 N and pulling 9425 N at 0.7 MPa. The barrel is extruded aluminum with sensor grooves on both sides, and this version includes a magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches.
This model uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for corrosion resistance and features PT tapered ports. The rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop to fine-tune end positions during commissioning; it is not a lock and cannot hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding without live air, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI series.

Dial in the exact retract distance between 620 and 650 mm during machine commissioning to accommodate varying workpiece heights without machining new hard stops.
Quickly adjust the stroke end-point on a packaging line when switching between different product sizes, using the rear screw to fine-tune the travel window on the fly.
Leverage the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa for large-scale pressing or forming operations, making micro-adjustments to the travel limit to optimize cycle consistency.
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 125 mm bore that provides 6136 N. The 30 mm adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers, allowing you to dial back the 650 mm nominal stroke to exactly 620 mm without swapping hardware or adding external stops. Because the stroke is 650 mm, the long unsupported rod requires an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading and premature wear.
This SAIJ configuration includes a -S magnet for position sensing, PT ports, and SUS420J2 rod material. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and uses a reduced mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. If you need a fixed end-stop without the adjustment feature, the standard SAI series is the alternative.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 30 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 620 to 650 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
