The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX170S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 170mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAI100X170-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder offering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa and 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Its 170 mm stroke provides the exact mid-range travel needed for heavy material handling, clamping, and pressing tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits traditional tie rods, ensuring a clean exterior while maintaining strict dimensional interchangeability with other ISO 15552 cylinders.
This specific configuration includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance in humid or mildly chemically exposed environments. It is equipped with a magnet (-S) to support CMSE and DMSE series sensors, fitting directly into the integrated grooves on both sides of the barrel. The PT tapered port threads ensure a tight, reliable pneumatic connection, and the standard adjustable air cushions at both ends manage deceleration smoothly.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides the necessary 5497 N push force at 0.7 MPa to actuate heavy stamping and forming presses securely.
Drives robust diverters on high-mass conveyor lines where a 170 mm stroke reliably pushes loaded pallets.
Positions heavy structural components or pallets in automated storage systems using CMSE magnetic sensors.
This 100 mm bore is ideal when a 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient for your load, but a massive 125 mm bore (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) would be overkill and consume too much space. Because the 170 mm stroke is relatively short, rod bending and side-load issues are minimal, but always ensure the load is guided to prevent premature seal wear. If your machinery loses air pressure, this standard cylinder cannot hold a load; for drop prevention, specify the SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (bidirectional clamp-lock) variant. For a direct ISO 15552 replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and select a mounting accessory like the FA flange or TC trunnion along with a -S magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
Yes, it is a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making it dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders using the same 100 mm bore and G1/2 port.
