The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X500 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 500mm 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 SAI100X500 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore actuator utilizes a 500 mm stroke to drive sizable loads across long distances. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods, ensuring a clean exterior that resists contamination in demanding industrial environments.
Beyond the standard dimensional interchangeability, this model features a carbon steel piston rod for high tensile strength under heavy axial loads. The standard configuration includes TPU seals and PT tapered port threads. For applications requiring position feedback, the barrel features dual sensor grooves on both sides, ready to accept CMSE or DMSE switches when a magnet is specified.

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 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa needed to actuate large stamping dies and heavy metalforming presses over a 500 mm travel distance.
Drives large-scale component placement and heavy pallet stops on automated assembly lines, utilizing its 500 mm stroke to span wide conveyor gaps.
Actuates large diverter arms and heavy pushers on bulk material handling conveyors, moving substantial product weights reliably at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Selecting this 100 mm bore actuator provides 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it a robust upgrade from the 80 mm variant (2513 N) for heavier tooling. If your application requires less force and faster cycling, the 63 mm bore offers 1559 N. At a 500 mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; utilizing an external linear guide or a guided cylinder carriage is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
This genuine AirTAC component serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. To match this exact configuration, specify the 100 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, G1/2 port, PT thread type, and carbon steel rod. Note that the adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end but do not hold the load; if position holding without live air pressure is required, consider the SAIL or BSAI locking variants.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical maximum force is 801 kgf.
Yes, the SAI100X500 is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making its mounting interface dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 standard cylinders. Ensure your setup matches the G1/2 port and 500 mm stroke specifications.
