The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X165-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 165mm 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 SAIJ160X165-10 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty applications. It features a rear-mounted adjusting stopper that allows you to fine-tune the effective stroke, providing a usable travel window of 155 to 165 mm without swapping out the unit. Equipped with a robust 40 mm carbon steel rod and a PT tapered G3/4 port, it delivers substantial thrust, generating 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
This adjustable-stroke design eliminates the need for external stops during machine commissioning or product changeovers. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, ready to accept CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is specified later. It utilizes a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB and CA options.

Dial in the exact 155-165 mm end-stop during press commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without adding external mechanical stops.

Leverage the 14074 N push force at 0.7 MPa to move and position heavy industrial loads precisely within a tight 10 mm adjustment window.
Selecting this 160 mm bore cylinder is ideal when an application demands high force, such as 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa, alongside precise mechanical end-position tuning. If the 155-165 mm adjustable travel window is excessive or the force is too high, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 8590 N at 0.7 MPa. Conversely, moving up to a 200 mm bore provides 21991 N at 0.7 MPa. Because the 165 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm? No, but at 165 mm with a heavy 40 mm rod, external guidance is still recommended to manage side loads.
Choose the SAIJ over a fixed-stroke SAI when your setup requires variable end-stops for product size changes. For a drop-in ISO 15552 replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, PT port thread, and the reduced mounting set. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold its load without live air. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 14074 N and a pull force of 9425 N. At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the 165 mm nominal stroke by up to 10 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 155-165 mm for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning.
