About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX175-20S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X175-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position. It delivers a substantial 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty handling. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for straightforward position feedback.
This specific SKU provides a usable travel window of 155 to 175 mm, trimming the nominal stroke by up to 20 mm without requiring external stops. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered ports. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to dial in the end position; it does not hold 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 SAIJ160BX175-20S Is Used
Heavy Press Fit
Dial in the exact 155-175 mm end stop for heavy press fits, ensuring precise insertion depth during machine setup without swapping hardware.
Product Changeover
Adapt quickly to varying product sizes on a packaging line by adjusting the retract position on the fly to meet new format requirements.
Material Flattening
Apply up to 10053 N of pulling force at 0.5 MPa to tension or flatten thick materials, using the rear stopper to set the exact return depth.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX175-20S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when an 80 mm bore (providing 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa) lacks the thrust for your heavy fixtures, but you want to avoid stepping up to a massive 200 mm unit. The adjustable stroke is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need precise end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover. If your process requires the cylinder to hold its load safely without continuous air pressure, this adjuster cannot act as a brake; you should instead evaluate the AirTAC SAIL or BSAI locking cylinders.
This model is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 mounting interfaces and supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The integrated magnet (-S) is fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors. Operating speed ranges from 30 to 500 mm/s. For any application approaching or exceeding 300 mm of travel, ensure an external guide is used to protect the rod from excessive side loading.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160BX175-20S FAQ
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke from 175 mm down to 155 mm. It allows fine-tuning of the end position at commissioning, but it is not a lock and will not hold the load without live air pressure.
