This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ160X1000-75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ160X1000-75 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 SIJ160X1000-75
The AirTAC Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X1000-75, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75
The AirTAC SIJ160X1000-75 is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 1000 mm nominal stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, yielding a usable 925-1000 mm window. This 160 mm bore delivers 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, features a 50 mm adjustable air cushion at each end, and uses a G3/4 port. This SIJ model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X1000-75, matching the interface, force, and mounting.
The SAIJ upgrade incorporates a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 6032 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), and vertical lift is about 512 kg with a 2:1 margin. This SKU lacks a -S magnet and cannot take a switch. The stop screw sets end position but is not a load lock; for held loads use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAIJ160X1000-75 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 SAIJ160X1000-75 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 SIJ160X1000-75 Is Used
Press Tonnage Calibration
Fine-tune the extend contact point on-site within the 75 mm window to calibrate pressing force without remounting the actuator.
Variable Length Diverter
Adjust the extend stop to alter the diversion stroke precisely for changing package sizes on a heavy-duty transfer line.
Pallet Positioning Stop
Trim the end position by up to 75 mm to accommodate varying pallet depths while utilizing the 10053 N push force.
Replacing the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75 with the SAIJ160X1000-75
To replace the discontinued SIJ160X1000-75, order the drop-in SAIJ160X1000-75, which preserves the G3/4 port, M36x2 rod thread, 50 mm cushion, and FA/LB/TC mountings. Size both ways using 0.5 MPa force: the neighboring 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push, while the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N push, compared to this 160 mm bore's 10053 N. Select the 75 mm adjust window if your application requires trimming the 1000 mm extend stroke down to 925 mm. Because the 1000 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, use external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads. This non-magnetic SKU cannot support sensing; for switch compatibility select a -S model (legacy CS1-B/DS1-B accuracy).
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAIJ160X1000-75
- ✓ 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 SIJ160X1000-75 FAQ
Yes, the SIJ160X1000-75 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X1000-75, offering the same ISO 15552 interface, 1000 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust window, and G3/4 port.
The 160 mm bore delivers 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 18095 N push at 0.9 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 75 mm trim window, allowing a usable extend stroke of 925-1000 mm. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
