About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX1000-20
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position. It provides a usable travel window of 980 to 1000 mm, letting you dial in the exact end-stop without adding external physical stops. Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports, it delivers robust performance for heavy-duty tasks.
The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to easily mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors if a magnet is specified later. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop for commissioning precision, not as a lock to hold the load without live air pressure.

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 SAIJ160BX1000-20 Is Used
Heavy Machinery Setup
Fine-tune the 980-1000 mm retract position during heavy machinery commissioning without machining new external stopper blocks.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the end-stop distance on a conveyor handling varying pallet sizes, utilizing the 20 mm trim range for rapid line changeovers.
Large Press Deceleration
Leverage the 40 mm cushion stroke and variable air cushions at both ends to safely decelerate heavy 14074 N pressing loads over long strokes.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX1000-20 the Right Cylinder?
Because this model features a 1000 mm stroke, an external guide is highly recommended to support the rod and prevent excessive side-loading, as even the 40 mm rod diameter cannot fully compensate for long unsupported travel.
The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine changeovers where the exact retract distance varies slightly by product size, saving the effort of swapping out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Remember that the rear adjuster only sets the travel end; it cannot hold a load without continuous air pressure. For true load-holding, consider an external rod lock or a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder exactly, specify the 160 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT ports, and your required mounting style from the available SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
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 SAIJ160BX1000-20 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a usable travel window of 980 to 1000 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
