The AirTAC SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX290-10S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 290mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X290-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 9425N pull force at 0.5 MPa and a usable travel window of 280-290mm, letting you fine-tune the retract end-position by up to 10mm without adding external stops.
This variant uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel integrates sensor grooves on three sides. It uses PT tapered ports and supports a mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

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.

Dial in the exact 280-290mm retraction distance during machine setup to accommodate varying material thicknesses without changing hardware.
Adjust the end-stop position on packaging lines when switching box sizes, using the rear screw rather than repositioning physical hard stops.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model when your application requires exact end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeovers, avoiding the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If you need slightly less force, stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 5734N of pull at 0.5 MPa. For this 290mm stroke, an external guide is recommended to manage side-load risks on the 40mm rod.
The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for fail-safe load holding, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL series. To match this ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder, specify: 160mm bore, 290mm stroke, 10mm adjustment, PT G3/4 ports, SUS304 rod, and a -S magnet.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 10mm, creating a 280-290mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the retract end-position and is not a lock, meaning it cannot hold the load without continuous air pressure.
At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074N, with a maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa.
