The AirTAC Airtac SAI125 Standard Air Cylinder SAI125AX1000S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAI125X1000-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty automation, delivering a substantial 8590 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. With its 1000 mm stroke, this non-standard configuration is tailored for machinery requiring extensive linear reach. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that integrates smoothly into modern assemblies.
This specific configuration includes a magnet for CMSE and DMSE sensor switches, utilizing the dual sensor grooves machined into both sides of the barrel. The piston rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel, offering enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. Additionally, the ports feature a PT tapered thread type, ensuring a robust, leak-free pneumatic connection.

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 exerting high pressing forces, such as assembling large bearings or forming thick metal components where 8590 N of thrust is required.
The 1000 mm stroke provides the extended reach needed to push heavy pallets or divert large products across wide conveyor systems.
Moves large welding fixtures into position with precision, utilizing the SUS420J2 stainless steel rod to withstand harsh industrial environments.
Selecting this 125 mm bore over the neighboring 100 mm option doubles your thrust from 5497 N to 8590 N at 0.7 MPa, which is critical for moving heavy platens or large clamping forces. If your application requires less force, dropping to the 100 mm bore saves space and air consumption. Because this model features a 1000 mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; always use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder carriage to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a drop-in replacement for any standard ISO 15552 unit with a 125 mm bore and 1000 mm stroke. To complete your setup, pair it with PT port fittings, an appropriate mounting accessory like a TC trunnion or CA clevis, and CMSE/DMSE switches for position detection. Note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at stroke ends; they do not hold a load. If pressure drops, the rod will drift, so use a SAIL or BSAI locking variant for fail-safe position holding.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 8590 N and a pull force of 5734 N. It can reach a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the SAI125X1000-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. It shares the standard 125 mm bore mounting interface and 1000 mm stroke dimensions, making it a direct drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
