About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40S
The AirTAC SAIJ160X1000-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel by up to 40 mm. This yields a usable stroke window of 960 to 1000 mm, letting you fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning without swapping out the unit. Equipped with a carbon steel rod and a -S magnet for position sensing, it integrates seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches fitted into the dual-side sensor grooves.
Delivering massive thrust, this 160 mm bore generates 10053 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel design incorporates adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration. It is important to note that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop for end-position tuning, not as a locking device; it will not hold a load without sustained air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40S Is Used
Large Press Tuning
Dial in the exact 960-1000 mm end-stop during heavy press commissioning to ensure perfect alignment without machining external spacers.
Product Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract position for different pallet sizes on a conveyor line, utilizing the 40 mm trim range to adapt the stroke on the fly.
Heavy Material Handling
Leverage the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy materials, using the rear stopper to set precise resting positions for loading.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-40S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when your application demands extreme force, as it provides 10053 N of push force at just 0.5 MPa. If your process requires less energy, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N of push force at the same pressure. The SAIJ160X1000-40-S is specifically selected for setups needing a variable end-stop, giving you a 960 to 1000 mm travel window to dial in during product changeovers. For holding loads without live air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Because this cylinder features a 1000 mm stroke, the 40 mm diameter carbon steel rod and its M36x2 thread will experience significant side-loading if the load is unsupported. An external guide mechanism is mandatory to prevent premature wear. This configuration uses PT tapered port threads (G3/4) and supports the SAIJ mounting subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. It omits FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT G3/4 port, and -S magnet.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160X1000-40S FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa. At its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it achieves a push force of 18095 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the nominal 1000 mm stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 960 to 1000 mm. This allows for fine end-position tuning at commissioning, but it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
