About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX100S
The AirTAC SAI100X100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore unit is built to handle substantial pneumatic loads. The 100 mm stroke provides ample extension for clamping, pressing, and lifting tasks. Equipped with a -S magnet, the extruded aluminum barrel integrates seamlessly with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches mounted in the dual side grooves.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion and wear resistance compared to standard carbon steel. Fluid ports utilize a PT tapered thread type. As a genuine AirTAC component, it guarantees dimensional interchangeability with other ISO 15552 standard cylinders for seamless drop-in replacements.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX100S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa required to form and stamp thick metal components in automated fabrication lines.
Injection Mold Ejection
Utilizes the 100 mm stroke and SUS420J2 stainless rod to reliably eject dense plastic parts from mold cavities without risking surface corrosion.
Pallet Lifting
Lifts heavy loaded pallets in packaging cells, relying on the adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the 100 mm bore smoothly.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX100S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore model when 80 mm cylinders (providing 2513 N at 0.5 MPa) lack the necessary thrust for high-force operations. If 3927 N is excessive for your application, stepping down to an 80 mm bore optimizes air consumption. The 100 mm stroke is self-supporting, but for any stroke length of 300 mm or greater, you must manage side-load risks to prevent rod-bearing bending by utilizing external guides or a guided cylinder carriage.
This cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost; the piston will drift when the valve centers or pressure drops. For applications requiring position holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock. To match existing mounting footprints, pair this cylinder with accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions, and ensure the PT port thread matches your existing fittings.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
Yes, the SAI100X100-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can use it as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders by matching the 100 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT port, and mounting accessories.
