The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X1000-50S 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 SAIJ160X1000-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 950-1000 mm usable travel window. Equipped with a carbon steel rod and a -S magnet, it integrates seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise end-position detection. The extruded aluminum barrel design includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting.
Delivering 10053 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and rated for speeds of 30-500 mm/s, this large-bore actuator handles heavy-duty positioning. The integrated rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning without adding external stops. Note that this adjuster acts solely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without continuous air pressure.

Dial in the 950-1000 mm retract position during equipment format changes without physically replacing the cylinder or bolting on external mechanical stops.
Leverage the 10053 N pull force to move heavy platens, using the rear adjuster to fine-tune the end-of-stroke stopping point for precise material feeding.
Utilize the integrated -S magnet with DMSE electronic sensors to confirm stroke endpoints, while trimming up to 50 mm of travel to accommodate varying product dimensions.
Choose this 160 mm bore when an 80 mm cylinder (providing 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa) cannot meet your thrust requirements. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers on large machinery, allowing you to dial in the exact 950-1000 mm travel distance on-site rather than swapping to a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. For holding loads safely without live air, consider the SAIL or BSAI locking variants, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a brake.
When specifying a replacement, verify the 160 mm bore, 1000 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, the M36x2 rod and carbon steel piston are subject to significant side loads; an external guide is strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N of pull force and 14074 N of push force. It can deliver a maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a 950-1000 mm travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
