About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X240-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 230 to 240 mm, allowing you to dial in the exact end position during machine setup without adding external stops. Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, it generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa operating pressure.
This heavy-duty actuator uses PT tapered G3/4 ports and operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s. It includes adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage heavy kinetic energy. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for fail-safe load holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-10 Is Used
Heavy Press Tunning
Dial in the exact 230-240 mm clamping position on heavy assembly presses without swapping out the entire actuator.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the end-stop by up to 10 mm on automated lines processing varying product sizes.
High-Force Positioning
Move heavy pallets or fixtures using 10053 N of thrust while fine-tuning the rear stop for exact alignment.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-10 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial force—delivering 10053 N at 0.5 MPa—and a precise 230-240 mm travel window for product changeovers. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. Because this is a 240 mm stroke, the 40 mm diameter SUS304 rod handles high side loads well, but an external guide is still recommended for heavy lateral loads.
Choose the adjustable SAIJ over a fixed-stroke SAI when you need on-the-fly end-position tuning at commissioning. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders. Without a -S magnet, it cannot host CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160BX240-10 FAQ
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you mechanically shorten the nominal 240 mm stroke down to 230 mm. This allows precise end-position tuning during commissioning, but it functions only as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
