About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X30-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 20-30 mm. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement.
This configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position during commissioning without requiring external shims. It supports speeds of 30-500 mm/s and utilizes adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 20-30 mm travel during machine commissioning to set precise clamping depth on heavy press assemblies.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the end-stop position for varying product sizes on a high-force production line without changing cylinder hardware.
End-Position Trimming
Fine-tune the retract distance on heavy machinery to compensate for mechanical wear or tooling offsets during setup.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when you need high force, as it provides 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 5734 N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring precise variable end-stops without swapping the entire cylinder. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a locking mechanism; for load-holding without live air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. To match this ISO 15552 replacement, specify a 160 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, Basic/FA/LB/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2 mounting, and no magnet.
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 SAIJ160BX30-10 FAQ
The rear adjuster allows you to mechanically shorten the nominal 30 mm stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a usable travel window of 20-30 mm. This stopper fine-tunes the end position at commissioning but does not lock the load without live air.
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
