About the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X170-30
The AirTAC SAIJ160X170-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 140-170 mm usable travel window, allowing you to dial back the nominal 170 mm stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, it delivers 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
This large-bore actuator uses a robust 40 mm carbon steel rod with an M36x2 thread to handle high side loads. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Where the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X170-30 Is Used
Heavy Press Fine-Tuning
Dial in the exact 140-170 mm end position during machine setup without adding external mechanical stops on the press frame.
Product Size Changeover
Quickly adjust the retract distance on a packaging line when handling different pallet or product heights.
Variable End-Stop Actuation
Set precise lower-end travel limits for heavy-duty assembly stations requiring up to 14074 N of push force.
Is the Airtac SAIJ160 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ160X170-30 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 160 mm bore cylinder when an application requires substantial thrust—stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields only 8590 N at 0.7 MPa, whereas this model provides 14074 N. The 30 mm adjustment window is ideal for variable end-stops or product-size changeovers, eliminating the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. It features a PT tapered G3/4 port and supports mountings from the reduced SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

- ✓ 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 SAIJ160X170-30 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa, this 160 mm bore cylinder provides 14074 N of push force and 9425 N of pull force. It operates within a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the 170 mm nominal stroke down to 140 mm. It functions as a travel stop for end-position tuning and requires live air pressure to hold the load.
