About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-50S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X600-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear mechanical adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 50 mm. This yields a highly flexible 550 to 600 mm usable stroke window, letting you dial in the exact retract end position during commissioning without swapping out the cylinder or adding external stops. It delivers substantial thrust, pushing 18095 N at 0.9 MPa and pulling 9425 N at 0.5 MPa.
This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features a built-in magnet compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors via the dual-side barrel grooves. Fluid supply connects through PT tapered G3/4 ports. Remember that the rear screw acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true pneumatic locking without air, consider the related SAIL or BSAI series.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-50S Is Used
Variable End-Stop Positioning
Dial in the retract distance precisely within the 550-600 mm window during machine setup to accommodate different material thicknesses without changing hardware.
Product Changeover Systems
Quickly adjust the stroke stopper on packaging or conveying lines to handle varying package sizes on the fly, minimizing downtime between production runs.
Heavy-Duty Pressing
Leverage the 18095 N push force at 0.9 MPa for heavy pressing or forming tasks, using the rear screw to fine-tune the final pressing depth safely.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX600-50S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires the 18095 N push force at 0.9 MPa and demands on-the-fly end-position tuning for product changeovers. If your process needs less force, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 11045 N of push at 0.9 MPa, whereas moving up to a 200 mm bore provides 28274 N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for variable end stops, but if your travel requirement is permanently fixed, the standard SAI series offers a simpler setup.
Because the 600 mm stroke is substantial, the 40 mm diameter SUS304 rod will experience higher bending moments under heavy side loads; always use an external guide rail to prevent premature seal wear. This SAIJ model mounts via Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 interfaces, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR styles. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 mounting-interface dimensions.

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 SAIJ160BX600-50S FAQ
The rear mechanical stopper allows you to shorten the nominal 600 mm stroke by up to 50 mm, providing an adjustable travel window between 550 and 600 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without continuous live air pressure.
At 0.9 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides a push force of 18095 N and a pull force of 14074 N. It operates at a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
