The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X55 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 55mm 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 SAI50X55 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and 55mm stroke. It delivers a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for medium-duty handling tasks that require a compact yet powerful actuator.
This tie-rod-less extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE or DMSE switches, though adding a magnet requires the -S option. The standard configuration uses a carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads, ensuring robust performance in general industrial 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 at 0.5 MPa for securing mid-sized workpieces during machining or assembly processes.
The 55mm stroke offers rapid and precise movement for sorting or diverting packages on conveyor lines.
Ideal for lifting and transferring moderate loads in automated manufacturing cells where consistent actuation is required.
Step down to a 40mm bore for lighter loads (628 N at 0.5 MPa) or up to a 63mm bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) if your application requires higher thrust. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it will not hold a load if air pressure is lost; for position holding, consider the SAIL locking variant or an external rod lock. As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a direct replacement matching standard 50mm bore, 55mm stroke, G1/4 port, and standard mounting accessories without relying on tie-rods.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAI50X55 generates a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
Yes, the SAI50X55 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can drop it in using the existing 50mm bore, 55mm stroke, and G1/4 port interface without altering your mounting setup.
