The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 600mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ160X600-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 600 mm nominal travel by up to 30 mm. This creates a precise 570-600 mm usable window for fine-tuning end positions during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping out the physical actuator. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and up to 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of position switches. While the rear adjuster sets the travel end and the built-in air cushions decelerate the load, neither acts as a lock; for load-holding without live air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the 570-600 mm travel window during machine setup to press or form different material lengths without changing the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the retract position on a transfer line to accommodate varying package dimensions on the fly.
Leverage the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa to move heavy pallets, using the rear screw to fine-tune the final resting position.
Selecting this 160 mm bore actuator provides a massive 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from the 125 mm bore which offers 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa. The adjustable stroke is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when a machine requires variable end-stops to accommodate multiple product sizes on a single line. To match this exact ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 600 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and the SUS304 (B) rod material.
Because the 600 mm stroke is substantial, the 40 mm diameter rod and M36x2 thread carry high side-load capacity, yet an external guide is still recommended for long unsupported loads to prevent premature wear. Mounting options are restricted to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets found on other variants.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 600 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a 570-600 mm travel window. This stopper fine-tunes the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
