About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-20
Its 100mm nominal stroke can be dialed back by up to 20mm, creating an exact 80-100mm usable travel window for precision end-position tuning. This eliminates the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops during machine commissioning.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread, this large-bore unit runs at 30-500mm/s. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to set deceleration, not a lock, while the extruded aluminum barrel retains standard sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 9425 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 13195 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1922 kgf | |
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.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-20 Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Dial in the exact 80-100mm insertion depth for heavy press fits during initial setup, ensuring components seat perfectly without bottoming out.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract end-stop by up to 20mm on a packaging line when switching to different product sizes, minimizing downtime.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-20 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160mm bore cylinder when an application requires substantial thrust—stepping down to a 125mm bore drops the 0.5MPa push force to 6136N, whereas this model handles 10053N. The adjustable 80-100mm travel window is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, allowing operators to fine-tune the retract end without replacing the actuator. For any stroke of 100mm or more, ensure external guides support the load, as the robust 40mm rod and M36x2 thread handle high forces but cannot prevent side-loading independently.
When specifying a replacement, match the 160mm bore, 100mm stroke, 20mm adjustment, PT ports, and SUS304 rod material. Note that SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the adjuster only trims travel, load-holding without live air requires a SAIL or BSAI variant.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-20 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 100mm nominal stroke by up to 20mm, providing an adjustable travel window between 80mm and 100mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
