The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 100mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X100-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty operations. The integrated rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down to a 90-100 mm window, providing exact end-position calibration without adding external stops.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, though this unit is specified without a magnet. Operating at 30-500 mm/s, it utilizes adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate heavy loads smoothly.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact bottoming position of a large press during initial setup, using the 10 mm adjuster to compensate for tooling tolerances without external shims.
Quickly shift the end-stop by a few millimeters on a heavy-duty assembly line when switching between product variants, minimizing machine downtime.
The 10 mm adjustment range is ideal for dialing in precise end stops during machine commissioning or product changeover, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold its load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider an external pilot-operated check valve or the AirTAC SAIL series.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 100 mm nominal stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT ports, and the SUS304 rod material. Mounting options for this SAIJ series include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the 100 mm stroke is relatively short for this large bore, side-load risks are minimal, but the robust 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread handle substantial forces reliably.
Quick checklist
At its maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa, it can deliver up to 2050 kgf.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper that lets you shorten the 100 mm nominal stroke by up to 10 mm, providing a usable travel window of 90-100 mm. This allows for fine-tuning the retract end position during commissioning without changing the cylinder.
