The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX125-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 125mm 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.
It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports. The integrated adjuster allows you to trim the 125mm nominal stroke back by up to 40mm, creating an exact 85-125mm usable travel window for precise positioning.
This heavy-duty actuator utilizes an extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides, deliberately omitting tie-rod construction. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop for end-position tuning during commissioning; it does not hold the load without live air. For position holding without pneumatic pressure, an external rod lock or a related SAIL locking cylinder is required.

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.

Quickly reconfigure the 85-125mm retract stop on packaging lines when switching between different large product sizes without replacing the actuator.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke position during machine setup to prevent crushing heavy components, using the rear stopper instead of external hard stops.
The adjustable 85-125mm travel window is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, allowing you to dial in the exact retract stop without swapping the cylinder or adding external shims. Because the 125mm stroke is under the 300mm threshold, side-load risks are moderate, but the robust 40mm rod and M36x2 thread help manage higher bending moments.
When specifying a replacement, verify the 160mm bore, 125mm stroke, 40mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and the absence of a magnet. Mounting is limited to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). The operating speed for this bore is 30-500mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.7MPa, the push force increases to 14074N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 125mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, providing a usable travel window of 85-125mm. The screw functions as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract position and is not a locking mechanism.
