This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B04-SAID50X150, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. 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.

The AirTAC Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID50X150 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B04-SAID50X150, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B04-SID50X150 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, generating equal push and pull force (825 N at 0.5 MPa). The B04- prefix marks this as AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID50X150, mechanically identical to the standard model. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot carry a sensor. As an equal-both-ways cylinder, it resists rotation and can drive two tools simultaneously. It features a 20 mm rod, M16x1.5 thread, and a G1/4 port.
This SID model is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAID50X150 (same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, force, port and mounting). The SAI upgrade uses an improved two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Drives dual-tool mechanisms on heavy equipment with equal push and pull force, preventing rotational play in tight construction-machinery envelopes.
Simultaneously actuates opposing gates from a single center point, leveraging the double-rod's equal both-ways force for balanced material flow.
Provides stable, anti-rotation positioning for heavy-duty aggregate machinery where a single-rod cylinder would introduce uneven thrust.
Replace the discontinued B04-SID50X150 directly with the SAID50X150, reusing your existing FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. Size both ways by checking neighbouring bores (40 mm or 63 mm) if you need to adjust the equal 825 N force. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools from one piston. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept sensors; confirm if you need the -S version for position feedback. For this 150 mm stroke, side-load alignment is generally manageable, but for any stroke >=300 mm ensure proper guide support to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B04-SID50X150 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID50X150. The B04- prefix simply marks it as the construction-machinery dedicated variant; mechanically it is identical to the base SID50X150. The SAID50X150 matches its ISO 15552 interface, 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting.
Force is equal both ways: 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. It uses a G1/4 port, has a 20 mm rod with an M16x1.5 thread, and operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. The cylinder does not hold load on air loss; the 30 mm adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end.
