The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X125-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 125mm 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 SAIJ160X125-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel. With a 125 mm nominal stroke and a 50 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 75 to 125 mm. This bore size delivers substantial thrust, generating 18095 N of push force at 0.9 MPa and 14074 N at 0.7 MPa. The piston rod is carbon steel with an M36x2 thread, paired with 50 mm cushions at both ends to absorb kinetic energy.
Because it is an extruded aluminum profile cylinder, it integrates sensor grooves on both sides for position feedback. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position during commissioning or product changeover, meaning it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, an external rod lock or related types like the SAIL or BSAI cylinders are required.

Dial in the exact 75-125 mm end-stop during heavy machinery commissioning to perfect positioning without machining external stops.
Quickly adjust the travel window on a production line when changing product sizes, utilizing the 50 mm trim range for flexibility.
Fine-tune the stroke end for pressing applications requiring up to 18095 N of push force, ensuring precise contact without over-travel.
Choose this 160 mm bore when you need higher force than the 125 mm bore, which provides 11045 N of push force at 0.9 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops without swapping the entire cylinder or adding external stops. It operates at a speed range of 30-500 mm/s and uses a PT G3/4 port. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 160 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, and PT G3/4 port. Because the stroke is 125 mm, side-load is less of a concern, but the heavy M36x2 carbon steel rod still handles robust mechanics. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 18095 N and a pull force of 9425 N. The maximum allowable operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 125 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 75 to 125 mm. It is a travel stop for end-position tuning, not a lock, and does not hold the load without live air pressure.
