About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX260-10S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X260-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down to 250 mm from its 260 mm nominal length. The included magnet enables position sensing with CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state switches.
Unlike fixed-stroke alternatives, this model lets you dial in the exact retract end-position during commissioning without adding external stops. It features a PT tapered port thread, dual-side sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel, and variable air cushions at both ends. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without continuous air pressure.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 9425 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 13195 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1922 kgf | |
Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX260-10S Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 250-260 mm end-position during machine commissioning to perfect heavy pressing operations without physically swapping cylinders.
Product Changeover
Adjust the retract stop on the fly when switching product sizes on a line, using the 10 mm window to accommodate varying material thicknesses.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX260-10S the Right Cylinder?
The 10 mm adjustment window is ideal for precisely tuning machinery end-stops during product changeovers. If your process demands true load-holding without live air pressure, consider the SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) series instead, as the SAIJ rear screw is a stop, not a brake.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the 260 mm stroke approaches mid-range lengths for this bore size, ensure external guidance is used to prevent side-loading on the 40 mm 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 SAIJ160BX260-10S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 260 mm nominal stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a 250-260 mm usable travel window. This stop only sets the end position and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
