The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX185-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 185mm 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.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X185-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that permits precise end-position tuning. With a nominal 185 mm stroke and a 100 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 85-185 mm, allowing you to dial in the exact retract distance during commissioning without adding external stops. It delivers massive thrust, pushing 14074N at 0.7 MPa and pulling 9425N at 0.5 MPa.
This SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. It operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s and uses PT tapered ports sized G3/4. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop, meaning it will not hold the load without live air pressure.

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.

Dial in the exact 85 to 185 mm retract position during product size transitions without swapping out the cylinder or adding external shims.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance in manufacturing cells while tracking position with CMSE and DMSE sensors.
If you need less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6136N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 200 mm bore provides 15708N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers on a line where the retract distance varies by up to 100 mm. For load-holding without live air, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as this adjuster is only a stop. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly: specify 160 mm bore, 185 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust, PT G3/4 ports, SUS304 rod, and the -S magnet. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but the 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread handle higher bending stress if external guides are slightly misaligned.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the effective stroke. For this model, the 100 mm adjustment range allows the usable travel to be fine-tuned anywhere between 85 mm and 185 mm without replacing the cylinder.
