The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX130-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 130mm 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. By turning the rear stopper screw, you can trim the nominal 130mm stroke back by up to 40mm, creating a precise 90-130mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning.
This rear adjuster acts strictly as a mechanical travel stop to set the retraction endpoint and relies on the built-in variable air cushion for deceleration; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without air, an external pilot-operated check valve or a related AirTAC locking cylinder like the BSAI clamp-lock series 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.

Dial in the 90-130mm retraction window during format size changes on the line, avoiding the need to physically swap out the entire cylinder assembly.
Establish a variable mechanical end-stop for heavy press fits, ensuring the rod retracts precisely to the tuned 90-130mm travel point.
The adjustable 90-130mm travel window is selected over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder when you need to fine-tune the retraction end position during commissioning or accommodate product-size changeovers without physically swapping the cylinder or adding external stop blocks.
To match this exact configuration for an ISO 15552 replacement, specify a 160mm bore, 130mm stroke, 40mm adjustment range, PT port threads, SUS304 stainless steel rod, no magnet, and a mounting subset limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2. Although the stroke is moderate, the heavy 40mm rod diameter handles substantial side loads, yet an external guide rail is still recommended for optimal bearing life.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 130mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, providing a usable travel window of 90-130mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not hold the load without live air pressure.
