The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X100-50S 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 SAIJ160X100-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty operations. With a 160mm bore, it generates 14074N of push force at 0.7 MPa. The integrated -50 adjustment code allows you to dial back the 100mm nominal stroke, providing a usable travel window of 50-100mm to perfectly tune end positions without swapping hardware.
This variant features a standard carbon steel rod and a -S magnet for position sensing. You can mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches directly into the sensor grooves on both sides of the extruded aluminum barrel. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set deceleration and travel limits, meaning it will not hold a load safely without continuous live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 50-100mm pressing depth during commissioning to accommodate different material thicknesses without changing the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the retract end-stop on a packaging line when switching between large product sizes, saving setup time.
Provides massive 10053N force at 0.5 MPa for heavy gripping, with the adjuster allowing precise positioning of the open state.
Choose this 160mm bore cylinder when an 80mm bore lacks sufficient power, stepping up from the 80mm's 3518N push force at 0.5 MPa to this model's commanding 10053N. The adjustable 50-100mm travel window is ideal for product changeovers on heavy machinery, allowing operators to fine-tune the retract end-stop on the fly instead of machining external stops or reverting to a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application requires the load to be held mechanically without air pressure, you must integrate an external rod lock or look at the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
For a seamless ISO 15552 replacement, match the 160mm bore, 100mm nominal stroke, 50mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet requirement. Because the nominal stroke is 100mm, side-loading is minimal, but the substantial 40mm rod and M36x2 thread provide excellent rigidity. Mounting options are restricted to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 kits.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 10053N of push force and 9425N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 14074N.
The rear mechanical stopper lets you shorten the 100mm nominal stroke by up to 50mm, creating a usable travel window of 50-100mm. It functions as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air.
