About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-30
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy machinery. It features a 160mm bore, generating 10053N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and up to 18095N at 0.9 MPa. The integrated rear adjusting screw allows you to trim the effective travel, providing a 970-1000mm usable stroke window for precise end-position tuning without adding external stops.
This actuator uses a robust 40mm carbon steel rod with an M36x2 thread, handling substantial side loads, though a 1000mm stroke necessitates an external guide to prevent rod sag. It supports PT tapered port threading (G3/4) and includes variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate heavy moving masses. For position sensing, the extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches when a magnet is specified.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-30 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 970-1000mm end-stop during press commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without external shims.
Large Assembly Jigs
Position heavy structural components on an automated line, relying on the 18095N push force at 0.9 MPa to move substantial payloads.
Long-Stroke Forming
Execute long-travel forming operations where the 40mm carbon steel rod and external guide handle the high side-load stresses of a 1000mm stroke.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-30 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160mm bore when your application requires extreme force, stepping up from the 125mm bore which provides 5734N pull at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for commissioning fine-tunes or product changeover, letting you dial in the 970-1000mm travel window directly at the rear stopper rather than swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Because the 1000mm stroke exceeds typical unsupported lengths, you must use an external guide to manage side loading.
The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and deceleration point; it does not hold the load without live air. If your machine requires true load-holding without continuous pressure, select the SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock instead. This SAIJ model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and uses a reduced mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

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 SAIJ160X1000-30 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 10053N pull and 14074N push, scaling up to 18095N push at 0.9 MPa. The maximum thrust is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A rear stopper screw lets you shorten the nominal 1000mm stroke by up to 30mm, creating a 970-1000mm travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
