About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-100
The AirTAC SAIJ160X600-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that permits up to 100 mm of end-position tuning. This yields a usable travel window of 500 to 600 mm, allowing you to dial in the exact retract distance without swapping out the barrel. The 160 mm bore delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. \n\nBuilt with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered port threads, this unit is tailored for demanding environments. It incorporates adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate heavy loads across its long stroke. Remember that this rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For position holding, an external pilot-operated check valve or a SAIL lock cylinder is required.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-100 Is Used
Variable End-Stop Conveying
Adjust the retract distance by up to 100 mm to handle varying product lengths on a conveyor line without changing the cylinder.
Machine Changeover Setup
Fine-tune the 500-600 mm travel window during product format changes, eliminating the need to swap out physical hard stops.
High-Force Positioning
Leverage the 18095 N push force at 0.9 MPa to move heavy pallets, using the rear screw to precisely set the final resting position.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-100 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore makes sense when your application requires high force, as stepping down to a 125 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 6136 N. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring product changeovers, letting you modify the end-stop on the fly instead of machining external stops or buying a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. \n\nBecause the 600 mm stroke is substantial, the 40 mm diameter SUS304 rod will experience leverage forces if the load is unsupported. You must use an external guide to prevent side-load damage to the barrel seals. To match this cylinder as an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 160 mm bore, 600 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjuster, PT port threads, and standard mounting interface. Note that SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets.

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 SAIJ160BX600-100 FAQ
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The SAIJ160X600-100 has a nominal stroke of 600 mm with a 100 mm rear adjuster. This creates an adjustable usable travel window ranging from 500 mm to 600 mm, allowing precise end-position tuning.
