About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X260
The AirTAC SAI100X260 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 260 mm stroke is ideal for heavy-duty material handling and high-thrust automation sequences. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that easily drops into existing ISO 15552 mounting footprints.
This specific configuration features a standard carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads. Because it lacks a standard magnet (-S), it relies on external limit switches, though the barrel retains dual-side sensor grooves for future upgrades if needed.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X260 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping
Provides the high 3927 N thrust required to actuate large mechanical stamping and forming presses reliably.
Pallet Diverting
Handles robust side-load diversion of heavy pallets along conveyor lines without tie-rod interference.
Automated Assembly Presses
Drives large-scale assembly tooling and actuators where exact ISO 15552 mounting dimensions are mandatory.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X260 the Right Cylinder?
Choosing this 100 mm bore over the smaller 80 mm variant yields a significant thrust jump, upgrading from 2513 N to 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore saves space and air consumption. Because the 260 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, it is crucial to manage side load; long unsupported rods bend under lateral stress, so utilize an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to prevent rod-bearing wear.
For replacement matching, verify the 100 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and your required mounting accessory (such as FA flange or TC trunnion). Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is removed; if the machinery must hold a vertical load safely during exhaust or power loss, integrate an external rod lock or specify the SAIL variant.
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.
