About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X160-100
The AirTAC SAIJ160X160-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering a robust 14074N push force at 0.7 MPa. By integrating an external adjusting screw, this cylinder allows you to trim the effective stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a highly flexible 60-160 mm usable travel window without changing the physical unit.
This 160 mm bore actuator features a 40 mm carbon steel rod and a G3/4 PT tapered port to handle high flow demands. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, ready for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if a magnet is added later. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X160-100 Is Used
Variable End-Stop Tuning
Dial in the exact retract distance within the 60-160 mm window during machine commissioning to accommodate multiple product sizes without mechanical rebuilds.
Heavy Forming Setup
Leverage the 14074N push force at 0.7 MPa for heavy pressing or holding tasks, adjusting the stroke limit to prevent over-travel on delicate tooling.
Changeover Optimization
Quickly reconfigure the effective stroke by up to 100 mm on production lines running varied material lengths, minimizing downtime between batches.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X160-100 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore when a 100 mm bore provides insufficient thrust (100 mm yields 5497N push at 0.7 MPa) or when stepping down from a 200 mm bore (21991N) to optimize air consumption. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product-size changeovers, letting you fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning rather than swapping cylinders or adding external stops. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock; the SAIJ cannot hold a load without live air, so consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder for positive load-holding.
For this 160 mm stroke, the 40 mm rod handles substantial side loads, but any application approaching or exceeding 300 mm of travel requires an external guide rail to prevent binding. To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder exactly, specify the 160 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, G3/4 PT port, and the required mounting bracket.
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 SAIJ160X160-100 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 14074N and a pull force of 9425N. At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 160 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, providing an effective travel range of 60 to 160 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
