About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-50S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X60-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 60 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 50 mm, yielding a highly versatile 10-60 mm usable travel window for precise end-position tuning during commissioning. Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy-duty pressing and clamping. This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads.
The rear adjuster functions strictly as a mechanical stop to set the retract end-position without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops; it is not a lock and will not hold the load without live air. For load-holding without pneumatic pressure, an external rod lock or the related SAIL (air-released lock) cylinder is required. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated magnet (-S) supports position detection via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-50S Is Used
Variable End-Stop Positioning
Dial in the exact retract distance between 10 and 60 mm during machine setup to accommodate varying material thicknesses without changing the cylinder.
Heavy-Duty Pressing
Leverage 10053 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa for high-force assembly operations, using the rear stopper to precisely define the pressing depth.
Washdown Assembly Lines
The SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT ports provide the corrosion resistance needed for demanding industrial environments and frequent cleaning.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX60-50S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when substantial thrust is needed but the exact end-stop distance varies by product, utilizing the 10-60 mm travel window to fine-tune machine changeovers. If 10053 N at 0.5 MPa is excessive, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N of push force. Conversely, moving up to a 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. The robust 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread handle high side loads well, though even with a 60 mm stroke, external guiding is recommended for heavy offset loads.
To match this exact configuration for an ISO 15552 replacement, specify: 160 mm bore, 60 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT tapered ports, SUS304 (B) rod material, and the -S magnet for CMSE/DMSE sensors. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR rear mountings.

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 SAIJ160BX60-50S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 60 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm. This creates a 10-60 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning without needing external stops.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
