The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX230-10S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 230mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X230-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the travel window between 220 and 230 mm without adding external stops. Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, it delivers a robust 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it ideal for heavy-duty positioning.
This adjustable-stroke model includes a magnetic piston for position sensing and uses PT tapered port threads. It features variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate heavy loads, but remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop—it will not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 220-230 mm end-stop during machine commissioning to accommodate material thickness variations without swapping cylinders.
Quickly adjust the retract position on automated assembly lines when switching between product sizes, saving valuable setup time.
Leverage the 10053 N pull force and SUS304 rod to move and position substantial jigs or workpieces within a high-demand manufacturing cell.
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial force, such as the 10053 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and precise end-position tuning during commissioning. If your setup needs less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore provides 5734 N of pull force, while moving up to a 200 mm bore yields 15080 N.
Because the stroke is 230 mm, you should ensure proper guiding for any heavy side loads. The -S magnet supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for exact positioning. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead of relying on the adjuster.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the nominal 230 mm stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a usable travel window of 220 to 230 mm so you can fine-tune the end position at commissioning.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force. It can reach a maximum push force of 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
