About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX30
The AirTAC SAI100X30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. It provides a substantial push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for short-stroke clamping and high-thrust pressing operations. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits traditional tie rods, resulting in a cleaner exterior that resists debris buildup.
This specific configuration features an SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid or mildly aggressive environments. It utilizes PT tapered port threads and lacks a magnet; if position sensing is required later, the barrel includes dual sensor grooves ready for CMSE or DMSE switches. For applications needing multi-directional clamping, the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock series offers an alternative.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX30 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa for short-stroke pressing, marking, and forming operations in metal fabrication lines.
Robotic Clamping
Generates robust holding power for securing heavy workpieces during robotic welding or machining processes.
Pallet Diverting
Delivers the high force needed to rapidly index or stop heavy pallets on automated conveyor systems.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX30 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 100mm bore is ideal when 80mm (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust for heavy lifting or holding. The 30mm stroke is optimized for compact, high-force motions rather than extended travel. Because the stroke is short, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal compared to longer units.
As a standard double-acting cylinder, this model relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position; venting the circuit or centering the directional valve will cause the load to drift. If your fixture requires mechanical position holding without live air pressure, consider the SAIL air-released lock variant. This SAI100X30 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, offering a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, and supports standard mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions.
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 SAI100AX30 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
Yes. The SAI100X30 is a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, meaning its mounting interface and envelope dimensions are standardized for drop-in interchangeability with other ISO 15552 compliant cylinders.
