The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X502S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 502mm 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 SAI100X502-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this specific 502 mm configuration is a made-to-order non-standard stroke designed for extended travel requirements. The barrel is extruded aluminum, and as a true profile cylinder, it omits tie-rods for a cleaner exterior while maintaining strict ISO mounting dimensions.
Equipped with a -S magnet, this model directly supports CMSE and DMSE sensor switches via the integrated dual-side grooves on the barrel. The standard carbon steel piston rod provides excellent durability for industrial environments, while the adjustable air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy to prevent end-cap impact damage during high-speed operations.

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.
Ideal for pushing or lifting heavy pallets and chassis components, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move substantial loads across automated assembly lines.
Executes extended 502 mm pressing and forming operations where long linear displacement is required before reaching the workpiece, benefiting from adjustable end-cushioning.
Drives large-scale sorting gates and diverters on wide conveyor systems, where the integrated -S magnet allows CMSE sensors to confirm stroke endpoints for PLC logic.
Choosing this 100 mm bore provides substantial thrust, but if your application requires less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, which may offer a more compact footprint. Because this 502 mm stroke exceeds the 500 mm standard threshold, it is classified as a non-standard made-to-order length. For strokes of 300 mm or greater, side loads can cause rod-bearing bending; utilizing an external guide rail or a fully guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal wear.
This unit uses a G1/2 PT tapered port and features an integrated magnet for position sensing. It serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement for any ISO 15552 cylinder, matching standard mounting accessories like FA flanges or TC trunnions. Note that the standard double-acting SAI does not hold loads when air pressure is lost; if your application requires static holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL locking variant or an external rod lock.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates a theoretical push force of 3927 N. If operated at the maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 801 kgf.
Yes, the SAI100X502-S is a genuine AirTAC profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensional standards, making it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders using standard mounting accessories and a G1/2 port.
