About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-20
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 980-1000 mm usable travel window, letting you dial back the 1000 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm during commissioning without adding external stops. Built with a carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered ports, it delivers 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
This large-bore actuator includes variable air cushions at both ends and an extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides. It operates at 30-500 mm/s and uses a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop, meaning it will not hold a load without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-20 Is Used
Variable End-Stop Tuning
Perfect for dialing in the exact retract position on large presses, allowing 20 mm of fine adjustment to compensate for mechanical wear over time.
Product Changeover
Quickly adapt machinery for different large-component sizes by adjusting the travel window from 980 to 1000 mm without swapping the cylinder.
Heavy Assembly Positioning
Moves substantial loads requiring up to 18095 N of push force at 0.9 MPa, with adjustable end positions for precise alignment during heavy assembly.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-20 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when you need heavy thrust up to 14074 N at 0.7 MPa, stepping up from a 125 mm bore that provides 8590 N. The 20 mm rear adjuster is ideal for fine-tuning end positions on product changeovers rather than machining fixed stops. For true load-holding without continuous air, select the SAIL or BSAI series instead, as this adjuster is not a lock.
Because the 1000 mm stroke is long and unsupported, the 40 mm rod and M36x2 thread still require an external guide to handle side loads. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT ports, and the specified mounting hardware.
Quick checklist
- ✓ 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 SAIJ160X1000-20 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 1000 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a 980-1000 mm travel window. It functions as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position and does not lock the load without air pressure.
At 0.7 MPa, it provides 14074 N of push force and 13234 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 18095 N.
