The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160BX950-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 950mm 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 SAIJ160X950-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 160mm bore and a 950mm stroke. An integrated rear adjusting screw allows you to dial back the effective travel by up to 100mm, creating a precise 850-950mm usable stroke window for commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the cylinder. It delivers a robust 10053N pull force at 0.5MPa, making it suited for heavy-duty positioning.
This unit includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and is equipped with a magnet for position sensing. You can mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches directly into the extruded aluminum barrel sensor grooves. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to fine-tune the end position and must not be confused with a locking mechanism.

Dial in the exact retract distance between 850 and 950mm during machine setup, allowing rapid adaptation to new product dimensions without mechanical rework.
Leverage the 14074N push force at 0.7MPa to move heavy pallets or platens, adjusting the stroke stopper on the fly to accommodate different material lengths.
Utilize the SUS304 stainless steel rod in demanding forming stations where precise end-position tuning and corrosion resistance are required.
Select this 160mm bore cylinder when an application requires substantial thrust, offering 10053N pull and 14074N push at 0.7MPa. If your setup demands less force, stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 5734N pull at 0.5MPa, whereas moving up to a 200mm bore provides 15080N pull. The adjustable 850-950mm travel window is ideal for machinery requiring variable end-stops, providing finer control than a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the 950mm stroke is substantial, the 40mm diameter rod and M36x2 thread will still experience side-loading forces, so an external guide is recommended to prevent binding. This SAIJ configuration uses PT tapered ports and supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts. Note that the rear adjuster and air cushions decelerate the load but do not hold it without live air; for fail-safe load holding, consider an external pilot-operated check valve or the SAIL lock series.
Quick checklist
The rear stopper screw lets you shorten the nominal 950mm stroke by up to 100mm. This creates an adjustable 850-950mm travel window, enabling fine-tuning of the end position at commissioning without adding external stops.
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, it provides 10053N of push force and 9425N of pull force. At 0.7MPa, the push force increases to 14074N.
