The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX165S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 165mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI50X165-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 165 mm stroke provides the precise mid-range travel needed for clamping, lifting, and indexing tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel omits traditional tie-rods, presenting a clean exterior that resists debris accumulation.
This specific configuration includes a factory-installed magnet (-S) for position detection via CMSE or DMSE reed switches seated in the dual sensor grooves. The piston rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance, and air connections utilize PT tapered threads.

Provides reliable 982 N clamping force to secure aluminum or steel workpieces during CNC milling and drilling operations.
Actuates routing gates on packaging lines, using the 165 mm stroke to push cartons smoothly into secondary processing lanes.
Ejects molded parts from low-force assembly presses, utilizing the SUS420J2 stainless steel rod to withstand minor environmental moisture.
With an 825 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore is a solid step up from the 40 mm bore (528 N pull) for tasks needing moderate thrust without the bulk of a 63 mm cylinder. Because the 165 mm stroke is a non-standard increment, verify your exact end-of-stroke clearance.
For any stroke at or above 300 mm, you must manage side-load to prevent rod-bearing bending; however, at 165 mm, standard mountings (FA, FB, or LB) are generally sufficient. Remember that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at end-of-stroke; if the air supply drops, this cylinder cannot hold a load—consider the SAIL variant for pilot-operated locking.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this double-acting cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
Yes. The SAI50X165-S shares standardized ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, making it dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. It uses PT tapered ports and includes a magnet for sensor tracking.
