About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-40S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X160-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling a usable travel window of 120 to 160 mm. It delivers substantial thrust, pushing 14074 N and pulling 9425 N at a 0.7 MPa operating pressure. This makes the bore size well-suited for heavy-duty handling tasks.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. It includes a magnet for position sensing, compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state switches mounted in the dual-side sensor grooves. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to dial in the end position during commissioning; it does not lock the load without live 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 SAIJ160BX160-40S Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 120-160 mm end position during machine commissioning to ensure precise pressing force without swapping cylinders.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract stop on a production line to accommodate different material thicknesses or product sizes.
Sensor Calibration
Leverage the integrated magnet and DMSE solid-state sensors to verify the adjusted end-stop position accurately.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-40S the Right Cylinder?
The robust 40 mm rod diameter and M36x2 thread handle high side loads well, but any stroke over 300 mm still necessitates an external guide. For load-holding without live pressure, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a brake.
To match this ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder, specify a 160 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT tapered ports, and the -S magnet option. It supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160BX160-40S FAQ
The rear adjuster allows you to mechanically shorten the nominal 160 mm stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 120 to 160 mm. It functions as a hard stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without live air.
It operates at speeds between 30 and 500 mm/s.
