About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-100S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X240-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering 10053N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 240mm nominal stroke pairs with a 100mm adjustment range, yielding a usable travel window of 140-240mm for precise end-position tuning during commissioning. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated -S magnet operates seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches.
This heavy-duty model features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and carries a PT tapered port thread. The rear adjusting screw acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract position without needing external stops; it is not a locking device and cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-100S Is Used
Product Size Changeover
Quickly dial the stroke back from 240mm to 140mm via the rear adjuster when adapting machinery to run a different physical product size, avoiding cylinder removal.
Heavy Press Tuning
Fine-tune the end-stop position on a 10053N press operation during initial commissioning, using the 100mm adjustment window to perfect the crimping depth.
Corrosive Positioning
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod and adjustable 140-240mm travel window to accurately position heavy components in washdown or mildly corrosive environments.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX240-100S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires substantial thrust—such as the 10053N push force at 0.5 MPa—but still demands on-the-fly end-position adjustments. If you need less force, stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 6136N of push force, whereas moving up to a 200mm bore provides 15708N. The 100mm adjustment window is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, allowing you to dial back the stroke from 240mm to 140mm without swapping the cylinder. To ensure a true ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 160mm bore, 240mm stroke, PT port thread, Basic/FA/LB/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2 mounting style, and the -S magnet requirement. Because the nominal stroke is 240mm, ensure proper external guiding to handle side loads, as even the robust 40mm rod can be stressed by unsupported long-travel loads.
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 SAIJ160BX240-100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 10053N and a pull force of 9425N. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, it can deliver up to 2050 kgf of push force.
The rear mechanical adjuster allows you to trim the effective travel anywhere within a 140-240mm window. It functions strictly as a travel stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
