About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX180-30
The AirTAC SAIJ160X180-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling a usable travel window of 150 to 180 mm. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for straightforward position feedback integration.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning without adding external stops; it does not lock the load without live air pressure. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air, the related SAIL or BSAI series should be considered.

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 SAIJ160BX180-30 Is Used
Machine Setup and Changeover
Enables rapid 150 to 180 mm travel window adjustments during product size transitions on a manufacturing line without physically replacing the actuator.
Corrosive Environment Handling
The SUS304 stainless steel rod withstands humid or washdown industrial settings better than standard carbon steel, ensuring reliable long-term actuation.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX180-30 the Right Cylinder?
The 30 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on a line, allowing operators to dial in the exact end-stop without swapping the entire cylinder for a fixed-stroke SAI unit. When specifying the ISO 15552 replacement match, confirm the 160 mm bore, 180 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and the SUS304 rod material. Because the 180 mm stroke is relatively short, side-load stress is minimal, though external guides are always recommended for optimal cylinder longevity. The mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options.
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 SAIJ160BX180-30 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to mechanically shorten the effective stroke within a 150 to 180 mm travel window. It functions as a hard stop for end-position tuning at commissioning and does not act as a lock to hold the load without live air.
