The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX275-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 275mm 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 SAIJ160X275-10 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a robust 18095N push force at 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty operations. The integrated -10 adjustment code allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 10 mm, creating a precise 265-275 mm usable stroke window without needing external stops.
This bore features a 40 mm piston rod with an M36x2 thread, utilizing a PT tapered port connection. The barrel is machined from extruded aluminum with sensor grooves on both sides. This unit uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance, and it relies on adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the massive load smoothly.

Fine-tune the 265-275 mm travel window during the commissioning of large presses to achieve exact bottom-dead-center positioning without mechanical shims.

Leverage the 18095N push force to move heavy pallets, using the rear stopper to precisely set the retraction endpoint.
Choose this 160 mm bore when a 100 mm bore (providing 7068N push at 0.9 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust for heavy loads. The adjustable stroke is highly beneficial during machine commissioning or product changeover, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position by up to 10 mm rather than swapping out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. When matching an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 275 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and mounting style.
Because the 275 mm stroke is substantial, the long unsupported rod is susceptible to side-loading; an external guide is recommended to prevent premature seal wear. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air. For load-holding requirements without pneumatic pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 18095N and a pull force of 9425N. At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the nominal 275 mm stroke by up to 10 mm, providing an effective travel range of 265 to 275 mm. This stopper decelerates the load but does not lock it in place without continuous air pressure.
