The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX80-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 80mm 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 SAIJ160X80-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster, designed to fine-tune end positions during commissioning. It provides a usable travel window of 60-80 mm by trimming the nominal 80 mm stroke up to 20 mm without adding external stops. Equipped with a robust 40 mm SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports, it handles heavy loads with a 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This adjustable-stroke model utilizes an extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides for flexible CMSE or DMSE switch mounting. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to set deceleration and end limits; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For applications requiring position holding without continuous air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Dial in the exact 60-80 mm travel distance for heavy pressing and clamping operations during initial commissioning without external spacers.
Quickly adjust the retract end-position by up to 20 mm on automated lines to accommodate varying product sizes on the fly.
Use the rear stopper to fine-tune the end-of-stroke deceleration for heavy 160 mm bore assembly actuators handling high forces.
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial thrust, such as the 10053 N pull or 14074 N push at 0.7 MPa, combined with the flexibility to dial in the exact end-of-stroke within a 60-80 mm window. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, whereas larger loads up to 15708 N pull would necessitate the 200 mm bore.
The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops or frequent product changeovers, eliminating the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. When specifying a replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and the SUS304 (B) rod material. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 80 mm down to 60 mm. This provides a 60-80 mm usable window to fine-tune the end position at commissioning without swapping the cylinder.
