Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50
The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50 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.

About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50
The AirTAC SAIJ160X100-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 50 to 100 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 100 mm stroke by up to 50 mm during machine commissioning without adding external stops. In this bore size, it generates a robust 10053 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This model features a carbon steel piston rod and uses a PT tapered G3/4 port. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to fine-tune end positions; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Fine-tune the pressing depth of heavy-duty assembly operations on the fly, adjusting the travel window from 50 to 100 mm to accommodate different material thicknesses without swapping cylinders.
Product Changeover Stops
Act as a variable end-stop on a conveyor line, allowing operators to mechanically reposition the stopper distance for varying package sizes during production line changeovers.
Machine Setup Calibration
Provide precise end-position calibration during initial machine commissioning, using the 50 mm rear adjustment screw to perfectly dial in the final resting position without external spacers.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 160 mm bore cylinder when your application requires high thrust, such as the 14074 N push force available at 0.7 MPa, combined with the flexibility to trim the stroke on the fly. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is particularly beneficial for product changeovers on a production line, where the exact end-of-stroke position frequently varies. Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this SAIJ model allows you to set the exact travel distance mechanically at the rear of the barrel.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 100 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT G3/4 port, and your required mounting accessory from the SAIJ set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Because the nominal stroke is only 100 mm, side-loading concerns are minimal, though the substantial 40 mm rod diameter and M36x2 thread provide excellent resistance to deflection if slight side loads occur.

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 SAIJ160X100-50 FAQ
The rear adjuster allows you to mechanically shorten the effective stroke from 100 mm down to as little as 50 mm, giving a 50-100 mm usable travel window. It functions as a hard stop to tune the end position and is not a lock, meaning it will not hold the load without continuous air pressure.
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ160X100-50 provides 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. If operating at 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074 N.
