About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X500S
The AirTAC SAI100X500-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 500mm stroke. It delivers a robust 3927N push force at 0.5MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty automation tasks requiring substantial travel. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods for a clean exterior.
Equipped with a magnetic piston (-S), this model seamlessly integrates CMSE and DMSE sensor switches via the dual-sided sensor grooves. It utilizes a standard carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads, ensuring reliable and leak-free pneumatic connections in demanding industrial environments.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X500S Is Used
Heavy Material Lifts
Ideal for elevating heavy metal sheets or structural components over a 500mm travel distance where 3927N of thrust at 0.5MPa is required.
Long-Stroke Diverters
Handles large product routing on wide conveyor systems, using the full 500mm extension to push heavy pallets into secondary processing lanes.
Automated Pressing
Provides steady, powerful clamping and pressing forces for assembly lines, benefiting from the dual-sided sensor grooves for precise end-position verification.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X500S the Right Cylinder?
Providing 3927N of push force at 0.5MPa, this 100mm bore is a significant step up from the 63mm bore (1559N), ideal when mid-sized actuators lack the necessary thrust for moving heavy jigs. For applications needing even higher force, the 125mm bore offers 6136N. At a 500mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; utilizing an external guide rail or a fully guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
This cylinder serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. To match this specific unit, select a 100mm bore, 500mm stroke, PT G1/2 port, FA or FB flange mounting, and ensure the -S magnet option is included for sensor compatibility. Note that this standard cylinder relies on adjustable air cushions to decelerate the piston at stroke ends; it will not hold a load if air pressure is lost. For position holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI locking variants.
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.
