About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X30-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering robust 10053N pull force at 0.5 MPa. Because this is a short 30mm stroke variant, the 10mm adjustment screw provides a highly focused 20-30mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning during commissioning. This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod for superior corrosion resistance and features a built-in magnet for position sensing.
You can fine-tune the retract end position without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops, which is ideal for product changeovers. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, supporting AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. Remember that the rear adjuster functions purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10S Is Used
Heavy Press Fit Tuning
Dial in the exact 20-30mm travel window during machine setup to perfect heavy press-fit operations without machining new spacers.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract end-stop on packaging lines when switching between different product heights, minimizing downtime.
Corrosive Assembly Lines
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod and massive 10053N pull force for reliable actuation in washdown or corrosive manufacturing environments.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX30-10S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160mm bore size when you need massive thrust—up to 14074N push at 0.7 MPa—within a compact footprint, stepping up from a 125mm bore that offers 6136N push at 0.5 MPa. An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need variable end-stops to accommodate different product sizes on the same machine. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160mm bore, 30mm stroke, 10mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet requirement. The M36x2 rod thread and 40mm cushion length ensure heavy-duty shock absorption at the travel ends.
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 SAIJ160BX30-10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 160mm bore cylinder provides 10053N push and 9425N pull force. The operational speed range for this bore size is 30-500 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the nominal 30mm stroke by up to 10mm, creating a precise 20-30mm usable travel window to fine-tune the end position without external stops.
