The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 160mm 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.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X160-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the retract end position. It provides a usable travel window of 150-160 mm, letting you dial in the exact end-of-stroke without adding external stops. This 160 mm bore delivers substantial force, yielding 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and reaching 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
This model uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and features tapered PT port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE or DMSE solid-state switches. It supports a mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

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 exact 150-160 mm retract position during heavy press commissioning without machining new external stopper blocks.
Quickly adjust the end-stop up to 10 mm when switching between product variants on a high-force assembly line.
Provides a robust 9425 N pull force at 0.5 MPa for heavy gripping, with a stainless SUS304 rod resisting workshop corrosion.
Choose this 160 mm bore when your application requires heavy thrust between the 63 mm bore (1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa) and the massive 200 mm bore. The 10 mm adjustment range is perfect for precise commissioning tweaks or product changeovers on a line, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. For any stroke of 160 mm, ensure your external guide can handle the side loads, as the 40 mm rod diameter and M36x2 thread carry high stress but still require support.
Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock. A plain SAIJ cylinder cannot hold its load or maintain position without live air pressure. If your application requires true load-holding safety, you must use an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or switch to the AirTAC SAIL or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder series.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 160 mm down to 150 mm. It sets the end position and deceleration but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
