About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX1000-20S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust up to 18095N at 0.9 MPa. Its 1000 mm nominal stroke incorporates a 20 mm adjustment range, yielding a precise 980-1000 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the retract end position without adding external stops. This made-to-order configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing.
Designed for heavy-duty applications, this bore 160 unit operates at 30-500 mm/s and uses G3/4 PT tapered ports. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, seamlessly supporting AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. The robust 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread provide excellent structural integrity, while the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock to hold loads 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 SAIJ160BX1000-20S Is Used
Heavy Machinery Setup
Dial in the exact 980-1000 mm retract position during large equipment commissioning, compensating for mechanical tolerances without machining new hard stops.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the end-of-stroke position on a conveyor divert arm to accommodate different pallet sizes, utilizing the 20 mm trim range for rapid line format changes.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX1000-20S the Right Cylinder?
Select this specific adjustable-stroke model when an application demands exact end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover, avoiding the need to swap out the entire cylinder. Because this cylinder features a 1000 mm stroke, an external guide is strongly recommended to manage side loads and prevent rod binding over such a long unsupported distance.
When matching ISO 15552 interchangeable replacements, verify the 160 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment code, G3/4 PT ports, and the -S magnet. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous live air, note that this cylinder's rear screw and air cushions only decelerate the travel end; a SAIL pneumatic lock, BSAI clamp-lock, or external rod lock is necessary for secure holding.
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 SAIJ160BX1000-20S FAQ
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 980 to 1000 mm, enabling fine end-position tuning at commissioning without replacing the cylinder.
