About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX165-100
The AirTAC SAIJ160X165-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling you to dial back the effective travel to establish a precise usable window of 65 to 165 mm. The extruded aluminum barrel features dual sensor grooves, and the rod is constructed from SUS304 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.
This model utilizes a PT tapered port thread and includes variable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration. It is important to note that the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the end position; it does not function as a lock. For applications requiring load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the AirTAC SAIL or BSAI series instead.

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 SAIJ160BX165-100 Is Used
Heavy Machinery Setup
Fine-tune the 65 to 165 mm travel window during heavy equipment assembly to achieve exact positioning without fabricating custom spacers.
Product Changeover
Rapidly adjust the end-stop distance on packaging lines handling varying product sizes, utilizing the 100 mm adjustment range for quick transitions.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX165-100 the Right Cylinder?
If your application demands less force, stepping down to a bore 125 cylinder provides 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, whereas moving up to a bore 200 unit yields 28274 N. The adjustable stroke is specifically beneficial during machine commissioning or product changeover, allowing you to fine-tune the end stop without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this SAIJ model provides on-the-fly travel adjustments.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment range, PT G3/4 port, and desired mounting accessory from the SAIJ subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Since this unit lacks a magnet, position sensing is not possible without modification. Furthermore, ensure adequate external guiding to handle side loads, as the 40 mm rod diameter requires proper support to prevent premature wear.
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 SAIJ160BX165-100 FAQ
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that allows you to shorten the nominal 165 mm stroke, providing a usable travel window between 65 and 165 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
