About the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX230
The AirTAC SAI50X230 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder offering a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa. With a 230 mm stroke, it is perfectly suited for medium-duty handling tasks requiring reliable linear motion.
This specific configuration incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. Although the standard barrel lacks a magnet, its extruded aluminum profile features dual sensor grooves, allowing for future integration of CMSE or DMSE switches if sensing becomes necessary.

Where the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX230 Is Used
Component Clamping
Secures machined metal parts during milling or drilling operations, utilizing its 982 N push force to hold workpieces firmly against stop blocks.
Package Diverting
Actuates a diverting arm on a packaging line, pushing cartons smoothly onto a secondary belt with a 230 mm travel distance.
Pallet Lift Gate
Raises and lowers a lightweight mechanical gate on a roller conveyor to control the flow of pallets into a sorting zone.
Is the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX230 the Right Cylinder?
If your application demands less force, stepping down to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N at 0.5 MPa. Conversely, moving up to the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N for heavier payloads. Because this 230 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm? No, it is under 300 mm, but still requires attention to side loads. For applications with significant lateral forces, utilize an external guide rail to prevent rod-bearing bending.
This unit serves as a direct, direct replacement for any ISO 15552 mounting interface cylinder. It uses a G1/4 port, an M16x1.5 rod thread, and pairs seamlessly with FA/FB flanges or TC trunnion accessories. Note that a standard double-acting cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost; utilize the SAIL variant if your workflow requires true pneumatic locking during an air failure.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX230 FAQ
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
No, a standard double-acting SAI cylinder relies on live air pressure and will drift or drop if air is lost. To hold a suspended load securely, you should use the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or an external rod lock.
