The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X165-100S 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 SAIJ160X165-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty operations. With a 160mm bore, it generates 14074N of push force at 0.7 MPa and reaches 18095N at 0.9 MPa. The integrated -S magnet enables position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. Its extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting.
This specific SKU features a 165mm nominal stroke paired with a 100mm adjustment range, creating a wide 65-165mm usable travel window. This allows you to dial in the exact retract end-position during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the cylinder. The robust 40mm carbon steel rod and M36x2 thread handle high side loads, while the PT tapered port threads ensure a secure, leak-free pneumatic connection.

Fine-tune the pressing depth of heavy industrial presses during setup, utilizing the 65-165mm travel window to accommodate different material thicknesses without mechanical rebuilds.
Rapidly adjust end-stops on automated packaging lines when switching between varying package sizes, relying on the 100mm adjustment range for exact positioning.
Secure oversized components in heavy machining fixtures by precisely setting the retract distance, ensuring the clamp clears the part safely before the next cycle.
Select this 160mm bore cylinder when an application requires extreme force that a 125mm bore cannot provide, stepping up from 11045N to 18095N at 0.9 MPa. The adjustable-stroke design is ideal for machinery requiring frequent product-size changeovers, acting as an internal mechanical stop to set precise travel limits. Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this rear adjuster allows fine-tuning of the retract position on the fly.
Because the nominal stroke is 165mm, an external guide is recommended to support the load and prevent excessive side-loading on the 40mm rod. Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a lock; the air cushion decelerates the load but cannot hold it without live air. For load-holding requirements without pneumatic pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
This 160mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 14074N at 0.7 MPa and 18095N at 0.9 MPa. The pull force at 0.7 MPa is 9425N, driven by its 40mm diameter rod.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the retract stroke. With a 165mm nominal stroke and a 100mm adjustment code, the usable travel window is 65-165mm, allowing you to set the exact end-position without adding external stops.
