This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ160X100-75S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ160X100-75S in place of this model. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.
Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S
The AirTAC Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 100mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X100-75S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S
The AirTAC SIJ160X100-75S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 160mm bore and 100mm nominal stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75mm on-site, yielding a usable 25-100mm extension window. It delivers 10053N push and 9425N pull at 0.5MPa, features a G3/4 port, M36x2 rod thread, and 50mm adjustable cushions. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X100-75S, retaining the same interface, force, and porting.
The SAIJ successor incorporates an upgraded piston seal utilizing two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. For sizing, a safe working load is approximately 6032N (60% of the 0.5MPa push figure), translating to a 512kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 margin. The stop screw strictly sets the end position; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAIJ160X100-75S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10053 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 14074 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 2050 kgf | |
The SAIJ160X100-75S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S Is Used
Heavy Press Tonnage Calibration
Requires precise field stroke tuning to set the exact 25-100mm extend position for heavy pressing operations, preventing over-travel on varying workpiece heights.
Pallet Positioning Stops
Demands adjustable end positions to accommodate different pallet footprints on the fly, using the 75mm trim window to alter the physical stop location without changing cylinder mounts.
Variable Thickness Clamping
Needs on-site stroke shortening to clamp parts of varying thicknesses securely, utilizing the external stop screw to dial in the exact 10053N push force at the correct extension.
Replacing the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S with the SAIJ160X100-75S
To replace the discontinued SIJ160X100-75S, specify the drop-in SAIJ160X100-75S, which preserves the 160mm bore, 100mm nominal stroke, 75mm adjust window, G3/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. When sizing both ways, the neighboring 125mm bore yields 6136N push at 0.5MPa, while the 200mm bore yields 15708N push at 0.5MPa. Choose the 75mm adjust window if your application requires field-tuning the extend stroke down to a 25mm minimum. Mounting attachments (FA, LB, TC) reuse the existing ISO 15552 interface. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches (the SAIJ uses current AirTAC switches). For strokes at or above 300mm, carefully manage side loads to prevent excessive guide wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAIJ160X100-75S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X100-75S FAQ
Yes, the SIJ160X100-75S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X100-75S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, 160mm bore, 100mm nominal stroke, 75mm adjust window, G3/4 port, and mounting options, while adding an upgraded piston seal.
The 160mm bore provides 10053N push and 9425N pull at 0.5MPa, 14074N push at 0.7MPa, 18095N push at 0.9MPa, and a 2050kgf max at 1.0MPa. The external stop screw allows you to trim the extend stroke by up to 75mm on-site, giving a usable extension of 25-100mm. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock.
