About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 20 to 60 mm for precise end-position tuning. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. This bore size features a robust 40 mm piston rod, a G3/4 port, and 50 mm cushions at both ends to manage heavy kinetic energy.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B), this variant is optimized for environments where corrosion resistance is necessary. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated magnet (-S) supports direct mounting of AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state sensors without additional brackets. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40S Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 20 to 60 mm pressing depth during commissioning to accommodate different material thicknesses without swapping cylinders.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the rear stopper on the fly when switching the production line to a new product size, minimizing machine downtime.
High-Force Positioning
Leverage the 10053 N pull force to move heavy jigs into their final seated position, using the adjuster to fine-tune the resting coordinate.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-40S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore when an application requires high force output within a compact 60 mm nominal stroke, but still needs micro-adjustments at commissioning. If the project demands less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Conversely, moving up to a 200 mm bore provides 15080 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable rear stopper allows you to dial in the exact end position during machine setup without adding external physical stops.
For a true ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 160 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, intentionally omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations. Because this is a high-force double-acting cylinder, remember that the rear adjuster and air cushions only decelerate the travel end; they do not function as a lock. For load-holding without live air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
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 SAIJ160BX60-40S FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster allows you to trim the 60 mm nominal stroke back by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 20 to 60 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
