The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX650-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 650mm 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 SAIJ160X650-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 650 mm travel by up to 100 mm. This creates a precise 550-650 mm usable window for fine-tuning the retract end position during commissioning without swapping out the barrel or adding external stops. Built to handle heavy loads, it delivers 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and utilizes a robust 40 mm piston rod with an M36x2 thread.
This heavy-duty unit features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes dual-side sensor grooves, while the integrated adjustable air cushions manage deceleration at both ends. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the 550-650 mm retract position during heavy machinery commissioning to achieve exact end-stop locations without machining custom spacers.
Quickly adapt the cylinder's effective travel on automated lines handling different product sizes by adjusting the rear stopper screw.
Leverage the 14074 N push force to move heavy pallets or fixtures, using the fine-tune adjustment to set precise indexing distances.
Choose this 160 mm bore when a 125 mm bore (providing 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa) is insufficient for your thrust requirements, but a 200 mm bore is oversized. The adjustable 550-650 mm travel is ideal for machinery requiring product changeovers or variable end-stops, offering more flexibility than a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Because the 650 mm stroke is long and unsupported, the 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread handle significant side loads, but an external guide is still recommended to prevent premature wear. When specifying an ISO 15552 replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 650 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 mounting options (the SAIJ series omits FB, CA, CB, and CR).
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. It can deliver a maximum push force of 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm from the nominal 650 mm, creating a usable travel window of 550 to 650 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
