About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers a substantial 10053N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks. By integrating a rear adjustment screw, this model allows you to fine-tune the end position during commissioning without relying on external stops.
This specific SKU provides a usable travel window of 20 to 60 mm, trimming the nominal 60 mm stroke by up to 40 mm. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threading. The extruded aluminum barrel includes dual-sided sensor grooves, while the integrated air cushions manage deceleration at the travel ends.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40 Is Used
Heavy-Duty End-Stop Tuning
Dial in the exact 20 to 60 mm retraction point during machine setup to handle varying material thicknesses without adding external mechanical stops.
Product Changeover Adjustment
Quickly modify the effective stroke on packaging or forming lines to accommodate different product sizes while maintaining the original ISO 15552 mounting footprint.
Corrosive Environment Actuation
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod and robust 10053N thrust for reliable, heavy-duty clamping in washdown or mildly corrosive industrial settings.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this bore size is appropriate when an application demands high force, as stepping down to a bore 125 yields 6136N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The SAIJ160X60-40 is chosen over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder when a machine requires variable end-stops to accommodate quick product changeovers. When matching this for an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 160mm bore, 60mm stroke, 40mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and the absence of a magnet. Note that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true position holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
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 SAIJ160BX60-40 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 160mm bore cylinder generates 10053N of push force and 9425N of pull force. The maximum thrust reaches 18095N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the nominal 60mm stroke. For this SKU, you can trim the effective travel down to a minimum of 20mm, providing a 20 to 60mm usable window.
