About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX5
The AirTAC SAI100X5 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for high-force, short-stroke execution. It delivers a robust 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy pressing and clamping tasks that require minimal travel distance.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid production environments. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE or DMSE switches, though this unit ships without a magnet.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX5 Is Used
Short-Stroke Stamping
Ideal for high-force stamping, crimping, and rivoting tasks in automated metal fabrication lines.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Provides reliable, high-thrust clamping force to secure heavy workpieces during machining or welding operations.
Component Seating
Exerts the precise, substantial force needed to seat heavy bearings or bushings into rigid housings.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100AX5 the Right Cylinder?
With a 5 mm stroke, this model is optimized for brief, high-impact thrust applications rather than continuous positioning. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N.
Because the stroke is exceptionally short, side-load bending is negligible. However, this standard cylinder cannot hold a load if air pressure drops; for fail-safe position holding, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock. This genuine AirTAC unit ensures exact ISO 15552 mounting interchangeability with PT tapered port threads.
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.
