Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40
The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40 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.

About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers heavy thrust up to 18095N at 0.9 MPa and uses a robust 40mm carbon steel rod with an M36x2 thread to handle substantial side loads. The built-in rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the effective travel window down from 1000mm to a minimum of 960mm, providing precise end-position calibration during commissioning without swapping out the unit.
This 160mm bore profile cylinder uses a PT G3/4 port and includes variable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure; for fail-safe load holding, explore the SAIL or BSAI series. It supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors via dual-side barrel grooves, and uses a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40 Is Used
Heavy Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 960-1000mm end-stop during heavy press commissioning to accommodate material thickness variations without machining custom spacers.
Pallet Changeover
Adjust the retract position on the fly for different pallet lengths during production line changeovers, minimizing downtime between product runs.
Long-Stroke Indexing
Index large heavy carriers with a 1000mm stroke while using the 40mm trim to absorb mechanical tolerances and set the precise home position.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160mm bore when 125mm falls short (8590N push at 0.5 MPa) or 200mm is excessive (15708N push at 0.5 MPa). The 40mm adjustment range is ideal for machinery requiring exact end-stop tuning across varying product sizes, offering flexibility a fixed-stroke SAI cannot match. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 1000mm stroke, 40mm adjust, PT G3/4 port, and mounting interface. Because the 1000mm stroke is long and unsupported, an external guide rail is mandatory to prevent rod binding and premature wear.
Remember that the rear adjuster and air cushions only decelerate the piston; they do not function as a brake. If the application requires the load to be held in place without constant compressed air, select a SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder instead of relying on this standard adjuster.
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 SAIJ160X1000-40 FAQ
At 0.9 MPa, this 160mm bore cylinder provides 18095N of push force and 9425N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 1000mm stroke by up to 40mm, creating a usable travel window of 960-1000mm. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
