About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX165-30
The AirTAC SAIJ160X165-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 165 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm. This creates a precise 135-165 mm usable travel window, enabling fine end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. It delivers substantial thrust, pushing 10053 N and pulling 9425 N at 0.5 MPa.
This heavy-duty unit features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and operates at 30-500 mm/s. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop for deceleration alongside the variable air cushions, meaning it will not hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. It uses a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.

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 SAIJ160BX165-30 Is Used
Heavy Press Fit Tuning
Dial in the exact 135-165 mm insertion depth for large bearings during assembly, preventing over-travel on high-force press operations.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the rear stop to accommodate different pallet heights on a heavy-duty conveyor line without changing out the actuator.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX165-30 the Right Cylinder?
The adjustable 135-165 mm window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you set variable end-stops on the fly instead of machining custom spacers. As an ISO 15552 replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, PT tapered ports, and mounting style. Note that this SKU lacks a magnet; adding an -S suffix is required if you need to mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors in the dual side grooves.
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 SAIJ160BX165-30 FAQ
At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 2050 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 165 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, providing a usable travel window of 135 to 165 mm. The adjuster acts as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not function as a lock to hold the load without air pressure.
