This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ160X1000-75S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ160X1000-75S 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 SIJ160X1000-75S
The AirTAC Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75S 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 SAIJ160X1000-75S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75S
The AirTAC SIJ160X1000-75S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 1000 mm nominal stroke and a built-in piston magnet. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, yielding a usable extend range of 925-1000 mm. The stop sets the end position; it is not a load lock. This 160 mm bore uses a G3/4 port, M36x2 rod thread, and 50 mm adjustable cushions. It delivers 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, reaching 18095 N at 0.9 MPa.
The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ160X1000-75S, retaining the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, force, and adjust window. The SAIJ upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. A computed buyer insight: safe working load is ~6032 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), allowing a ~512 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. For load holding without live air, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant, as this cylinder drifts on air loss.

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 SAIJ160X1000-75S 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 SIJ160X1000-75S Is Used
Heavy Press Tonnage
Demands field stroke tuning to precisely set the 925-1000 mm extend contact point without re-engineering the press frame.
Large Pallet Diverting
Requires on-site stroke trimming to accommodate varying pallet lengths while moving heavy loads up to 512 kg vertically.
Automated Storage Retrieval
Needs adjustable end positions for multi-depth shelving, using the 75 mm stop screw to fine-tune extraction reach.
Replacing the Airtac SIJ160 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ160X1000-75S with the SAIJ160X1000-75S
To replace the discontinued SIJ160X1000-75S, order the drop-in SAIJ160X1000-75S, reusing your existing FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAIJ uses current AirTAC switches. For sizing both ways: the neighboring 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 200 mm bore yields 15708 N. Choose the 75 mm adjust window if you need field tuning between 925 and 1000 mm. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, account for side-load and rod-bending by using external guides to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAIJ160X1000-75S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
