The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X290S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 290mm 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 SAI50X290-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and a 290mm stroke. It generates a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for medium-duty industrial handling and positioning tasks.
This variant includes a standard carbon steel piston rod and a built-in magnet (-S) for direct compatibility with CMSE and DMSE reed switches. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting, and you can equip it with high-temperature Viton (H) seals for demanding thermal environments.

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 for holding medium-weight machined components securely during milling or drilling operations.
Actuates diverter arms on processing lines to route heavy cartons or totes efficiently without requiring external pneumatic locks.
Handles the vertical elevation of goods in pick-and-place modules, utilizing its 290mm stroke to transfer items between varying conveyor heights.
If your application requires less thrust, the 40mm bore neighbor provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 63mm bore yields 1559 N for heavier loads. Because this 290mm stroke approaches the longer end of the standard range, be mindful of rod-bearing bending under side loads; utilizing an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder helps prevent premature wear.
This unit uses a PT tapered G1/4 port and can be mounted using FA/FB flanges or TC trunnion brackets. Remember that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not lock the load. If pressure drops, the rod will drift, so specify a SAIL locking variant if position holding is mandatory.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N. It can reach up to 1374 N push force at 0.7 MPa.
Yes, the SAI50X290-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can drop it in as a replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, provided the 50mm bore, 290mm stroke, and G1/4 port match your existing footprint.
