The AirTAC Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X950S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 950mm 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 SAI100X950-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for substantial actuation tasks, providing a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. This 100 mm bore unit features a 950 mm stroke, placing it near the upper limit of the standard maximum stroke range of 1500 mm. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods, yielding a cleaner exterior that simplifies the mounting of accessories and switch tracks.
Equipped with a magnet for sensor integration, this model supports CMSE and DMSE switches seated in the dual side grooves. The standard carbon steel piston rod handles rigorous industrial demands, while the adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the heavy 100 mm piston smoothly. Operating speed spans 30-800 mm/s, making it a highly capable drop-in replacement for any ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder.

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.
Lifts and positions heavy sheet metal blanks into large forming presses using the 3927 N push force available at 0.5 MPa.
Actuates large-scale diverters on heavy-duty conveyor lines, utilizing the 950 mm stroke to clear wide pallet traffic.
Raises and lowers heavy subassembly platforms, relying on the integrated magnet and CMSE switches for precise end-position verification.
Selecting this 100 mm bore is ideal when 80 mm falls short—yielding 2513 N at 0.5 MPa—or when 125 mm is excessively large. Because this 950 mm stroke creates a long unsupported rod extension, side-load forces can severely bend the rod bearing and cause premature seal wear. Implement an external guide rail or choose a fully guided cylinder to absorb lateral loads and prevent mechanical binding.
If your machinery loses pneumatic pressure, this standard SAI cylinder cannot hold its load and the rod will drift. For vertical applications requiring fail-safe positioning, integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock. This configuration uses PT tapered ports, a G1/2 thread size, and pairs with FA, LB, or TC mounting accessories.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
Yes, the SAI100X950-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. It shares the same mounting interface, G1/2 port size, and M20x1.5 rod thread as other standard profile cylinders, allowing for a direct drop-in replacement.
