The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X135-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 135mm 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 SAIJ160X135-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers substantial thrust, pushing 18095N at 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty operations. The integrated -S magnet enables position sensing via CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches.
This model provides a usable travel window of 35 to 135 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 135 mm stroke by up to 100 mm. This vast adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers, letting you reposition the end stop without swapping the cylinder. It features a PT tapered port, a 40 mm carbon steel rod with an M36x2 thread, and extruded aluminum barrel construction.

Fine-tune the end position of a 18095N pressing operation during setup without adding external mechanical stops.
Adjust the travel window from 35 to 135 mm to accommodate varying product sizes on a single assembly line.
Use the 40 mm carbon steel rod and M36x2 thread to handle substantial side loads while precisely setting the retract stop.
Choose this 160 mm bore when 10053N at 0.5 MPa is insufficient and you need the 18095N push force at 0.9 MPa, or step down to a 125 mm bore offering 11045N at 0.9 MPa if your load is lighter. The 100 mm adjustment range is selected when a machine handles multiple product sizes, requiring vastly different end positions without mechanical rebuilds. Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this rear stopper allows rapid commissioning fine-tuning.
Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For position holding without pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. Because the usable stroke can be as long as 135 mm, ensure external guides support any heavy side loads to prevent rod binding. This SAIJ model uses the mounting set Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 135 mm down to 35 mm, giving a 100 mm adjustment window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without live air.
At 0.9 MPa it provides a push force of 18095N and a pull force of 9425N. The maximum thrust is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
