About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX15-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X15-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, designed to deliver massive clamping force over very short distances. This unit utilizes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads.
Unlike fixed-stroke SAI models, this adjustable variant eliminates the need for external stops during machine commissioning. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without continuous 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 SAIJ160BX15-10 Is Used
Precision Clamping
Ideal for heavy-duty machining fixtures where the 5-15mm adjustable travel window allows operators to fine-tune clamping depth on varying workpiece sizes without retooling.
Short-Stroke Pressing
Delivers 10053N of pressing force for short-stroke assembly operations, using the rear adjuster to set exact bottoming positions and prevent workpiece damage.
Machine Changeover
Facilitates rapid product size changeovers on automated lines by allowing technicians to quickly dial in the new end-stop position via the rear screw rather than adding external shims.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX15-10 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160mm bore cylinder is ideal when an application requires high thrust over a minimal extension distance. The adjustable 5-15mm travel window is perfect for applications demanding precise end-position tuning at setup or during product changeovers.
Because the stroke is under 300mm, side-load risks are minimized, though the substantial 40mm rod diameter naturally handles high mechanical stress. To replace an existing ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160mm bore, 15mm stroke, 10mm adjustment, PT port threads, and the SUS304 rod material. Note that for load-holding without live air, you must use a SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder, as the adjuster here is not a brake.
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 SAIJ160BX15-10 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to trim the effective stroke by up to 10mm. With a nominal stroke of 15mm, this creates a usable travel window of 5-15mm, enabling precise end-position tuning at commissioning without changing the cylinder.
