Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-50S
The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-50S 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.

About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-50S
By turning the rear stopper screw, you can trim the nominal 160mm travel back by up to 50mm, yielding a precise 110-160mm usable window. This allows fine end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the hardware or adding external stops.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for corrosion resistance, it features PT tapered ports (G3/4) and a pre-installed magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

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 SAIJ160BX160-50S Is Used
Oversized Product Forming
Dial in the exact 110-160mm end-stop during heavy pressing tasks to accommodate varying material thicknesses without changing the cylinder.
Machine Changeover
Quickly reconfigure the travel window on packaging lines when switching to a new product size, saving setup time on the floor.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX160-50S the Right Cylinder?
If you need less force, stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 8590N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for variable end stops on oversized products, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder suits static operations. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 160mm bore, 160mm stroke, 50mm adjustment, PT G3/4 ports, Basic/LB/TC/FA/FTC/TCM1/TCM2 mounting, and the -S magnet.
Because the stroke is 160mm, you must account for side-load risks on long unsupported strokes by using an external guide to prevent rod binding. The rear adjuster only sets the travel end; it does not lock the load. For position holding without live air, use a SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
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 SAIJ160BX160-50S FAQ
It reaches a maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 160mm nominal stroke by up to 50mm, creating a 110-160mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
