The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160AX900-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 900mm 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 SAIJ160X900-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 900 mm travel by up to 10 mm. This creates a precise 890-900 mm usable window for fine-tuning the retract end position at commissioning without adding external stops. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at 0.7 MPa.
Built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for high durability, this 160 mm bore unit features PT tapered ports and variable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches, though this specific SKU is supplied without a magnet. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact retract end position during initial commissioning, adjusting the stroke by up to 10 mm to perfect the resting state of heavy moving tooling.
Quickly adapt the travel limit for varying product sizes on a high-force assembly line without disassembling the cylinder mounting or bolting on new external stops.
Fine-tune the lower end-stop of a large pneumatic press, using the 890-900 mm window to synchronize contact timing across multiple actuators.
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa and a highly specific retract position. If you need less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you shift the end-stop by up to 10 mm rather than physically swapping the cylinder. For exact ISO 15552 replacement matching, verify the 160 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT ports, and mounting style. Note that strokes of 300 mm or more demand careful external guide support to prevent side-loading damage to the rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 18095 N of push force at its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure.
The rear adjuster acts as an external stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 900 mm down to 890 mm. It is a travel stop, not a lock, so it will not hold the load without live air pressure.
