The AirTAC Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50BX50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 50mm 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 SAI50X50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 50 mm stroke is ideal for short-travel clamping, gating, and compact ejection tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel omits tie-rods, presenting a clean exterior that speeds up machine integration and sensor placement.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed settings. It uses PT tapered port threads, and because no magnet is specified, it is optimized for purely mechanical actuation without sensor feedback. The standardized ISO 15552 mounting dimensions ensure it drops directly into existing footprints without requiring structural redesign.

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 holding force at 0.5 MPa for securing workpieces during light machining and assembly operations.
Actuates routing gates and pusher arms on packaging lines where a compact 50 mm stroke is sufficient to redirect product flow.
Delivers rapid, repeatable ejection of finished parts from press beds, utilizing the durable SUS304 rod to withstand repetitive impact.
Choose this 50 mm bore when a 40 mm bore (yielding 628 N at 0.5 MPa) is too weak, but a 63 mm bore (1559 N) is physically oversized. For this 50 mm stroke, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal, making it highly reliable for rigid short-throw applications. If your workflow demands position holding upon air loss, note that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston at stroke end; you must specify an SAIL locking variant or an external pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
To match this cylinder exactly for a replacement, confirm the 50 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT G1/4 port, and your required mounting accessory (such as an FA flange or LB foot). Since this unit lacks a magnet, do not expect CMSE or DMSE sensors to function; if proximity detection is needed, select an SAI50X50-S model instead.
Quick checklist
The SAI50X50 generates 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, scaling up to 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa.
Yes. The SAI50X50 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, allowing it to direct replace other profile cylinders with a 50 mm bore and G1/4 ports without modifying the mounting footprint.
