The AirTAC Airtac SAI125 Standard Air Cylinder SAI125AX20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 20mm 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 SAI125X20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for high-force, short-stroke tasks. It delivers a substantial 6136N push force at 0.5MPa, making it ideal for heavy pressing and clamping operations within a 20mm travel distance. The integrated magnet (-S) enables seamless position feedback using CMSE or DMSE sensor switches.
Built to exacting standards, this variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid environments. It utilizes PT tapered port threads and includes adjustable air cushions at both ends to mitigate impact, even over this abbreviated stroke.

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 robust 6136N force necessary for short-travel metal stamping and forming operations.
Ideal for securing heavy workpieces during machining, utilizing its 125mm bore for unwavering hold.
Executes precise 20mm press fits for bearings and bushings in automated assembly lines.
Selecting this 125mm bore cylinder is optimal when an application demands more force than a 100mm bore provides, stepping up from 3927N to 6136N at 0.5MPa. For applications requiring less force, a 100mm bore offers a more compact footprint. Because the 20mm stroke is non-standard and made-to-order, verify your mounting envelope allows for the specific extended and retracted lengths.
As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders without relying on tie-rod construction. Note that a plain SAI cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost; for applications requiring position holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5MPa, the SAI125X20-S generates a push force of 6136N and a pull force of 5734N.
Yes, the SAI125X20-S includes a built-in magnet (-S) and features sensor grooves on both sides of the barrel, allowing direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE series switches.
