The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X45S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 45mm 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 SAI100X45-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for high-force automation tasks. Operating at 0.7 MPa, it generates a robust 5497 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force across its 45 mm stroke. This genuine AirTact component features a standard carbon steel piston rod for dependable structural integrity in heavy-duty cycles.
Because this variant includes the -S magnet option, it seamlessly integrates with CMSE and DMSE reed switches mounted directly into the dual-side sensor grooves of the extruded aluminum barrel. The adjustable air cushions at both ends ensure smooth deceleration, while the PT tapered G1/2 ports provide secure, leak-free pneumatic connections.

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 5497 N push force required to seat bearings, form light gauge metals, and execute short-stroke pressing operations securely.
Acts as a robust stop gate for heavy pallets on a packaging line, using its 45 mm stroke to lock loads instantly in place.
Delivers the high pull force necessary to break suction and extract dense molded parts from tight tooling cavities.
Selecting this 100 mm bore unit makes sense when a 80 mm cylinder lacks thrust, as stepping up from 80 mm significantly increases output from 3518 N to 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Conversely, if your application only requires around 2000 N, dropping to a 63 mm bore saves space and air consumption. The 45 mm stroke is highly compact, minimizing rod-bearing bending stress during rapid actuation.
As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, this model is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, allowing a direct drop-in replacement without altering mounting plates. It uses a G1/2 port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and pairs with standard FA/FB flanges or TC trunnion accessories. Remember that the standard adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; if your machinery must hold a vertical load safely without live air pressure, specify the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant instead of relying on a plain cylinder.
Quick checklist
At a standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 5497 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force.
No, the standard SAI cylinder does not hold position without live pressure. You must use the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant for secure load holding during pressure loss.
