The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-30 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 SAIJ160X100-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty automation. It generates 10053N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and safely operates at pressures up to 1.0 MPa. The integrated rear stopper allows you to dial back the nominal 100mm stroke by up to 30mm, creating a precise 70-100mm usable travel window for fine-tuning end positions during commissioning.
This unit features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and carries a robust M36x2 rod thread designed to handle high side loads. Air is supplied via PT tapered G3/4 ports, while variable air cushions at both ends manage deceleration. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to easily mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if position feedback is added later.

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.

Fine-tune the 70-100mm travel window during machine setup to apply exact clamping force on large metal components without external stopper blocks.
Quickly adjust the rear stopper on a packaging line to accommodate different pallet heights, shifting the end position by up to 30mm in seconds.
Leverage the 10053N pull force to move heavy industrial assemblies into place, relying on the SUS304 rod to withstand harsh manufacturing environments.
Choose this 160mm bore when an 80mm cylinder lacks thrust, as stepping up here increases push force at 0.5 MPa from 2513N to 10053N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you shift the end-stop without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. For any load-holding requirements without live air pressure, note that this rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop; you should instead utilize an external pilot-operated check valve or explore the SAIL lock variant.
To match this exact ISO 15552 replacement, specify a 160mm bore, 100mm nominal stroke, 30mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the SUS304 (code B) rod material. Since this is a heavy-duty cylinder, ensure your mounting choice from the available SAIJ set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) adequately supports the load to prevent rod binding.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 100mm nominal stroke down to as little as 70mm. This allows precise end-position tuning at commissioning without replacing the cylinder.
