About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-20
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 40 to 60 mm usable travel window. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel and a SUS304 stainless steel rod, it delivers robust thrust, generating 10053 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and up to 18095 N at 0.9 MPa. The PT tapered ports and integrated 50 mm pneumatic cushions manage impact energy effectively.
This adjustable design allows you to fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning without adding external stops. It supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors via dual-side barrel grooves. The mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting heavy FB or rear pivot variants.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-20 Is Used
Position Fine-Tuning
Dial in the exact 40-60 mm retract distance during machine commissioning to perfect end-positioning without swapping cylinders.
Product Changeover
Quickly adapt the cylinder's effective stroke on the line when introducing a new product size that requires a slightly shorter travel distance.
Adjustable End-Stop
Use the built-in rear stopper screw to set precise retraction limits for delicate clamping or pressing operations, avoiding external stop hardware.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-20 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when the 125 mm class (5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient, but the 200 mm bore is oversized. The 20 mm adjustment window is perfect for dialing in exact retraction during machine setup or product changeovers, replacing the need to swap a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true fail-safe load holding, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL series. With a 60 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but always guide the load to prevent rod binding.
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 SAIJ160BX60-20 FAQ
It delivers 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa (up to 18095 N at 0.9 MPa). The 60 mm nominal stroke combined with the 20 mm adjustment code provides a usable travel window of 40 to 60 mm.
A rear external screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to trim the effective stroke back by up to 20 mm. It is a travel stop, not a lock, so it will not hold the load without continuous air pressure.
