The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 100mm 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 SAIJ160X100-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It features a 160mm bore, generating a substantial thrust of 10053N at 0.5MPa, and includes a standard magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The built-in rear stopper provides a usable travel window of 0 to 100mm, allowing you to dial back the full 100mm nominal stroke as needed during commissioning.
This adjustable-stroke design eliminates the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops when fine-tuning end positions. It utilizes a robust 40mm carbon steel rod and PT tapered ports. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, and the variable air cushions at both ends work alongside the mechanical stopper to decelerate the load smoothly at the retract end.

Dial in the exact 0-100mm end position during machine setup without swapping cylinders or adding external mechanical stops.
Quickly adjust the retract travel window on automated lines when handling different product sizes that require varying stroke depths.
Leverage the included -S magnet with DMSE electronic sensors to confirm the adjusted end-position in high-force assembly applications.
Choose this 160mm bore cylinder when an application requires high force (10053N push at 0.5MPa) and variable end-stop positioning. If you need less force, stepping down to a 100mm bore yields 3927N, but this 160mm unit is preferred for heavy loads. The adjustable 0-100mm travel window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, providing a mechanical fine-tune that a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder cannot offer. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold its load without live air pressure. For load-holding without supply pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, it matches the standard mounting footprint, PT port threads, and -S magnet configuration.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100mm from the nominal 100mm stroke, creating a 0 to 100mm usable travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, it provides 10053N of push force and 9425N of pull force. It can deliver up to 18095N push force at 0.9MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
