The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX170 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 170mm 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 SAI50X170 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 170 mm stroke provides the precise mid-range travel needed for clamping, lifting, and indexing tasks in automated machinery.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod for superior corrosion resistance in humid or washdown environments. It utilizes PT tapered port threads, and because it lacks the -S magnet option, it operates without integrated position sensing.

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 securing parts during machining, utilizing the SUS304 rod to withstand coolant splashing and factory moisture.
Provides the 982 N push force required to deflect heavy cartons or totes on a high-speed sorting line.
Executes 170 mm vertical lifts for work-in-progress trays between adjacent conveyor elevations.
Select this 50 mm bore unit when a 40 mm bore falls short—yielding 628 N at 0.5 MPa—or when the 63 mm bore's 1559 N is excessive for your space constraints. Because this 170 mm stroke exceeds the 300 mm side-load threshold? No, but you should still prevent rod bearing wear by ensuring the load is axially aligned or guided.
It serves as a direct replacement for any ISO 15552 cylinder matching the 50 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, and G1/4 port size. Mount it using standard FA/FB flanges or TC trunnion brackets. If your process drops air pressure and requires the rod to hold its place without drifting, specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock.
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.
Yes, the SAI50X170 shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface and G1/4 port dimensions, allowing direct dimensional interchange with other standard profile cylinders.
