The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX700-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 700mm 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 SAIJ160X700-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 700 mm travel by up to 20 mm for a precise 680-700 mm usable window. It delivers immense thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty press and lift operations. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, and this -S variant includes a magnet for direct compatibility with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches.
This model utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads with a G3/4 connection. The 40 mm rod diameter and M36x2 thread provide robust mechanics, though an unsupported 700 mm stroke requires external guidance to manage side loads. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position during commissioning; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 680-700 mm end-stop during machine commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without replacing the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the retract position on a packaging line when switching to larger product dimensions, using the rear screw to set the new travel limit.
Leverage the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa to position heavy automotive components, relying on the 40 mm rod and external guides to handle the load.
Select this 160 mm bore cylinder when an application demands extreme force that a 125 mm bore cannot provide, or when stepping down from a 200 mm bore to save space. At 0.5 MPa, the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push force, whereas this 160 mm model pushes 10053 N, making the upgrade essential for high-tonnage tasks. The adjustable 680-700 mm window is ideal for product changeovers, allowing operators to fine-tune the retract end position without swapping cylinders or adding external stops. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, pair this cylinder with an external rod lock or consider the AirTAC SAIL or BSAI series, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a locking mechanism.
To match this exact ISO 15552 interchangeable replacement, specify: 160 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment range, PT port threads, SUS420J2 rod material, and the -S magnet option. Mounting choices are restricted to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). Because the 700 mm stroke is long, ensure your framework includes an external guide to prevent rod binding under heavy 30-500 mm/s operational speeds.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N and the pull force is 9425 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N. The maximum push force is 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 700 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 680 to 700 mm. It is a stop for fine-tuning end positions, not a lock to hold the load without air pressure.
