About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX220-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X220-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear mechanical adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 210 to 220 mm. Belonging to the 160 mm bore class, it generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. This substantial thrust capacity makes it well suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This specific configuration incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel rod (material code B) for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads with a G3/4 connection. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing for direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches if a magnet is specified later. The rear stopper functions strictly as an end-position stop and does not hold the load without continuous live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX220-10 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Positioning
Provides 10053 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa for moving heavy fixtures, utilizing the 10 mm rear adjuster to dial in the exact retract end position during initial machine setup.
Product Changeover
Enables rapid adjustment of the 210-220 mm travel window on automated lines when product sizes change, avoiding the need to physically swap out the entire cylinder.
Corrosive Assembly Lines
The SUS304 stainless steel rod and robust profile barrel withstand humid or washdown manufacturing environments while delivering consistent heavy-force actuation.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX220-10 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder is appropriate when an application requires approximately 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 125 mm bore that provides 6136 N. The 10 mm adjustment range is ideal for fine-tuning the retract end position during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. For applications needing positive load-holding without live air pressure, a plain SAIJ is insufficient; consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock, BSAI clamp-lock, or an external rod lock.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and the desired mounting set. SAIJ supports a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because this unit features a 220 mm stroke, it remains under the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke limit. However, any long unsupported stroke exceeding 300 mm requires an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
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 SAIJ160BX220-10 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At the maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa, the push force reaches 2050 kgf.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a usable travel window of 210 to 220 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
