The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX180 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 180mm 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 SAI50X180 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 180 mm stroke provides the extended travel needed for mid-range material handling and assembly automation. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, it eliminates tie-rods for a clean, compact footprint.
This configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance in humid environments. Fluid connections use PT tapered threads, and the barrel includes dual sensor grooves allowing direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is added later.

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 reliable 982 N clamping force at 0.5 MPa for securing machined parts during milling or drilling operations.
The 180 mm stroke actuates diverter arms on packaging lines to route medium-weight cartons efficiently.
Operates pneumatic safety gates and machine guarding doors where consistent double-acting push and pull motion is required.
Select this 50 mm bore when an application requires stepping up from the 40 mm class (628 N at 0.5 MPa) to handle heavier payloads, but without the bulk of a 63 mm body. Because this model lacks a magnet, position sensing requires external limit valves or retrofitting a -S variant. For operations that must maintain position during a pressure loss, integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or specify the SAIL locking cylinder.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 unit, the SAI50X180 serves as a direct replacement for other standard profile cylinders. Ensure your mounting setup matches the FA or FB flange accessories, and confirm the G1/4 port size during pneumatic circuit design.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. If pressure is increased to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 1374 N.
Yes. The SAI50X180 is built to the ISO 15552 dimensional standard, making it mechanically interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders of the same bore size. Always verify the G1/4 port and mounting interface dimensions.
