About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX200-40
The AirTAC SAIJ160X200-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering 14074N of push force at 0.7 MPa. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports. By turning the rear screw, you can trim the nominal 200mm stroke back by up to 40mm, creating a precise 160-200mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning during commissioning.
This adjustable stopper allows you to dial in the retract position without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX200-40 Is Used
Heavy Machinery Setup
Fine-tune the 160-200mm travel window during heavy machinery commissioning to achieve exact retract positions without machining new hard stops.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the rear stopper on a packaging line to accommodate different product sizes, utilizing the 40mm trim range for rapid format changes.
High-Force Positioning
Leverage the 14074N push force at 0.7 MPa to move and position heavy pallets or fixtures, dialing in the exact end-of-stroke location on the fly.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX200-40 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160mm bore cylinder when you need high thrust (14074N at 0.7 MPa) alongside variable end-stop positioning. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 8590N at 0.7 MPa; stepping up to a 200mm bore provides 21991N at 0.7 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder is better for set-and-forget setups.
For load-holding without continuous air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient since the rear adjuster is a stop, not a lock; consider an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or the AirTAC SAIL and BSAI locking cylinders. Because the 200mm stroke exceeds 300mm? No, but with a heavy 40mm rod and M36x2 thread, it handles high side loads well, though external guides are still recommended for unsupported loads. This SKU uses PT tapered ports and lacks a magnet, so it does not support CMSE or DMSE sensors without modification.
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 SAIJ160BX200-40 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 160mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 14074N and a pull force of 9425N. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it achieves a push force of 18095N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 200mm down to 160mm. This provides a 160-200mm usable window to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning, but it acts as a stop and does not lock the load without live air.
