About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX120-20S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X120-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the end-of-travel position. With a nominal 120 mm stroke and a 20 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 100-120 mm.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) and a PT tapered port, this model is built for demanding environments. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated -S magnet supports position detection using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches.

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 SAIJ160BX120-20S Is Used
Machine Changeover
Dial in the exact 100-120 mm travel window during product size transitions without replacing the cylinder or adding external stopper blocks.
End-Position Tuning
Compensates for mechanical tolerance stack-up during initial machine commissioning by trimming up to 20 mm off the nominal stroke directly at the cylinder.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX120-20S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when an application requires high force combined with precise end-position tuning at commissioning, avoiding the need to swap out physical components or add external stops. Remember that the rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For secure load-holding without continuous air supply, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To ensure a true ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 160 mm bore, 120 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and the -S magnet requirement.
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 SAIJ160BX120-20S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke from its nominal 120 mm down to 100 mm. This creates a 100-120 mm adjustable travel window for fine-tuning at commissioning, but it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
