This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B04-SAID50X200S, 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 B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID50X200S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 200mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B04-SAID50X200S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B04-SID50X200S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 825 N @0.5 MPa. The B04- prefix marks this as AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID50X200S, mechanically identical to the standard model with a G1/4 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. This SID series is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID50X200S, sharing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and equal-both-ways force.
The double-rod design prevents piston rotation and allows the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.

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).
Uses the equal both-ways force and anti-rotation properties of the double rod to actuate secondary linkage guides on heavy construction equipment without twisting.
Employs the dual rods to push and pull a heavy feed gate on a mobile crushing plant, ensuring identical clamping pressure in both directions.
Drives a secondary safety latch on a loader attachment using the rear rod as a sensor cam track, keeping the mechanism compact and synchronized.
To replace the discontinued B04-SID50X200S, specify the SAID50X200S, which is a direct swap retaining the 50mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting dimensions. Size both directions by verifying the equal force of 825 N @0.5 MPa meets your needs, or step to neighbouring bores (40mm or 63mm) if a different capacity is required. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or want to drive two tools from one cylinder. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts directly. The -S suffix means a magnet is present for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For strokes of 300mm or longer, account for side-load deflection on the rod.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B04-SID50X200S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID50X200S. The B04- prefix simply marks it as the construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SID50X200S, so the SAID50X200S matches its 50mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting exactly.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. Remember that air cushions only decelerate the piston; they do not hold loads on air loss.
