The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAIJ160X1000-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 1000 mm nominal stroke that can be dialed back by up to 30 mm, yielding a 970-1000 mm usable travel window for precise end-position tuning. Belonging to the 160 mm bore class, it generates 10053 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
This unit includes a standard carbon steel piston rod and a magnet (-S) for electronic DMSE or reed CMSE position sensing. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. The PT tapered ports and M36x2 rod thread handle high flow and structural loads.

Dial in the 970-1000 mm travel window during setup to perfectly time the pressing stroke without swapping cylinders.
Quickly adjust the retract position by up to 30 mm on automated lines when switching between product sizes.
Use the 10053 N pull force to move heavy fixtures, relying on the rear stopper to set the exact home position.
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when a 125 mm bore (offering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) cannot provide enough force, but a 200 mm bore (delivering 15708 N) would be excessive. The adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder to fine-tune the retract end-stop during commissioning or product changeovers without adding external stops.
Because the stroke is 1000 mm, the M36x2 rod and carbon steel piston require an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading. This SAIJ model operates at 30-500 mm/s. Remember that the rear adjuster and air cushions only set travel ends and deceleration; they do not hold the load without live air. For true load-holding, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that trims the 1000 mm nominal stroke back by up to 30 mm, creating a 970-1000 mm adjustable travel window. It decelerates the end of travel but does not lock the load without live air.
