About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX50-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X50-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the end position during commissioning. With a nominal 50 mm stroke and a 10 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 40-50 mm without requiring external stops. It delivers robust thrust, generating 10053 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This heavy-duty unit features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. While the rear screw lets you dial in the exact retract distance, it functions strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without continuous live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX50-10 Is Used
Heavy Press Fitment
Dial in the exact 40-50 mm insertion depth for heavy press operations, ensuring precise mechanical contact without over-stroking the assembly.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract end-stop by up to 10 mm during production line changeovers to accommodate slightly different workpiece heights.
Robust Clamping Setup
Leverage the 10053 N pull force to secure heavy workpieces, using the rear adjuster to set the exact clamping distance at commissioning.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX50-10 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when an 80 mm bore is insufficient, as the smaller version only provides 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable 40-50 mm window is ideal for applications requiring precise mechanical end-position tuning during product changeovers. For holding loads safely without air pressure, you would need a SAIL or BSAI variant instead of this standard cylinder.
When matching your ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 50 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment range, PT G3/4 port, and SUS304 rod material. Supported mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the 50 mm stroke is relatively short for this large bore, side-load risks are minimal, but external guides are still recommended for heavy radial loads.
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 SAIJ160BX50-10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force. It can reach a maximum push force of 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 50 mm nominal stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a 40-50 mm usable travel window. It is designed for fine-tuning end positions at setup and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
