The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX850-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 850mm 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 SAIJ160X850-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty automation. It yields 14074N of push force at 0.7 MPa and up to 18095N at 0.9 MPa. The integrated -100 adjustment code establishes a usable travel window of 750-850 mm, enabling precise end-position tuning without swapping the actuator.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads with a G3/4 connection. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and while this specific SKU lacks a magnet, the design supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors when specified.

Dial in the exact bottoming position on heavy stamping presses within the 750-850 mm window to accommodate varying material thicknesses.
Rapidly adjust the retract end-stop during packaging line format changes without physically replacing the cylinder or adding external stop blocks.
Fine-tune the clamping travel on large welding fixtures, ensuring precise alignment of heavy structural components.
Select this 160 mm bore actuator when an application demands high force and variable end-stops, such as pressing or heavy clamping stations requiring exact positional limits. If the 18095N output at 0.9 MPa exceeds requirements, stepping down to a 125 mm bore provides 11045N of push force while saving space. Conversely, if loads surpass 18095N, a 200 mm bore offers 28274N. The rear screw acts strictly as a travel stop for deceleration and positioning; it does not hold the load without live air. For dead-load holding, utilize an external pilot-operated check valve or select a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder.
Because the 850 mm stroke is substantial, the 40 mm diameter rod and M36x2 thread require external guiding to prevent excessive side-loading and binding. For ISO 15552 interchangeability, match the 160 mm bore, 850 mm stroke, -100 adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Note that SAIJ omits FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 18095N and a pull force of 9425N. At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 100 mm from the nominal 850 mm stroke. This creates a usable travel window of 750-850 mm for fine-tuning the retract end position at commissioning.
