About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX950-10
The AirTAC SAIJ160X950-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering a robust 10053N pull force at 0.5 MPa. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports. The built-in adjustment mechanism allows the 950mm nominal stroke to be fine-tuned down to 940mm, providing a precise 940-950mm usable travel window for exact end-position calibration.
Because the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop, it cannot hold a load without continuous live air pressure. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of position switches. Operating speed for this 160mm bore is rated at 30-500mm/s, supported by 50mm variable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration over the long travel distance.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX950-10 Is Used
Press Stroke Tuning
Dial in the exact 940-950mm end-stop during heavy press setup to accommodate material thickness variations without changing the cylinder.
Conveyor Transfer Alignment
Adjust the retract position by up to 10mm to perfectly align product pushers across different conveyor line widths.
Large Machine Changeover
Modify the effective travel end-point on the factory floor during product size changeovers, eliminating the need to bolt on external physical stops.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX950-10 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160mm bore when an application requires heavy thrust (10053N pull at 0.5 MPa) that a 125mm bore (5734N pull) cannot provide. The adjustable-stroke design is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need to dial in the exact end-of-travel position during machine commissioning or product changeover without swapping out the entire actuator.
When ordering, match the ISO 15552 footprint dimensions, 950mm stroke, 10mm adjustment range, PT ports, and the SUS304 rod. For strokes of 950mm, the long unsupported piston rod is highly susceptible to side-loading; an external guide mechanism is essential to prevent premature seal wear. If the machine requires true load-holding without live air, this cylinder is not a lock; consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI series instead.

- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
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 SAIJ160BX950-10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160mm bore cylinder provides 10053N of pull force and 14074N of push force. The maximum push force is 18095N at 0.9 MPa.
A rear adjustment screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 950mm nominal stroke by up to 10mm. This creates a 940-950mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning.
