The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X270S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 270mm 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 SAI100X270-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 270mm stroke. It delivers a robust 5497 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty material handling and pressing operations. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that easily drops into existing ISO 15552 mounting interfaces.
This specific configuration includes a standard carbon steel piston rod and a built-in magnet (-S) for position sensing. The dual sensor grooves on the barrel sides accept CMSE or DMSE reed switches, allowing for precise mid-stroke or end-position detection without requiring external mounting brackets.

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.
Drives heavy pallets and large totes along sorting lines where high push force is required to overcome friction.
Provides the consistent downward pressure needed for inserting bearings, bushings, or pins into housings.
Secures large metal or composite workpieces inside machining centers, holding firm against cutting forces.
If 5497 N at 0.7 MPa is insufficient, stepping up to the 125mm bore yields 8590 N, while dropping to the 80mm bore reduces output to 3518 N. At 270mm of stroke, the unsupported piston rod is susceptible to bending under lateral loads; utilize an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to prevent rod-bearing wear.
For applications requiring the load to remain suspended during a pressure loss event, the standard SAI will drift. Specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock to maintain position safely. This unit uses a PT tapered G1/2 port and is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the 100mm bore provides 5497 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes, the SAI100X270-S is built to the ISO 15552 standard, making it dimensionally interchangeable with older ISO 6431 or VDMA 24562 profile cylinders. It uses a G1/2 port and standard mounting accessories.
