About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-30S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X100-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down by up to 30 mm. This specific configuration yields a usable stroke window of 70 to 100 mm, letting you dial in the exact end position at commissioning without adding external stops. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 10053 N of pull force at a 0.5 MPa operating pressure.
This unit is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. It is fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state switches mounted into the dual-side sensor grooves. The rear adjuster functions purely as a travel stop to set deceleration endpoints, meaning it will not hold a load without live air pressure.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|

| 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 SAIJ160BX100-30S Is Used
Press Stroke Tuning
Dial in the exact 70 to 100 mm travel window during machine commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without swapping hardware.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the rear stopper on the assembly line when switching to a new product size, saving downtime compared to repositioning fixed external stops.
Heavy Forming End-Stop
Leverage the 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa for heavy-duty forming operations while relying on the rear screw to set a precise mechanical deceleration point.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX100-30S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore size provides 10053 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, offering a significant step up from the 100 mm bore which yields 3681 N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops during product changeovers. If your application requires dead-stop load holding without continuous air pressure, you should upgrade to an SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder instead of relying on the adjuster. The PT tapered port threads match the standard G3/4 air connection for this bore size.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 100 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT G3/4 port, and the -S magnet requirement. Because the stroke is 100 mm, side-load stress is minimal, but the robust 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread handle high guide loads efficiently. Remember that SAIJ uses a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
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 SAIJ160BX100-30S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 100 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, providing a usable travel window of 70 to 100 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
