The AirTAC SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X950S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 950mm 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 SAI50X950-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and a 950mm stroke. It generates a thrust of 982 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for long-travel material handling. Because the 950mm stroke exceeds the standard 1200mm maximum, it is manufactured as a made-to-order unit to fit specific machinery layouts.
This variant includes a standard carbon steel piston rod and a built-in magnet for position sensing. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, allowing seamless mounting of CMSE or DMSE reed switches along the extended travel path. Standard seals are TPU, but Viton (H) options are available for elevated temperature environments.

Drives parts over long distances on packaging and sorting conveyors where a 950mm reach is required to bridge machine gaps.
Lifts pallets or totes in vertical automated storage systems, utilizing the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa to elevate goods smoothly.
Actuates cutting or stamping heads across wide sheet materials, benefiting from the stable ISO 15552 mounting interface.
For applications needing less reach, a 50mm bore with a 900mm stroke provides slightly shorter travel while maintaining the same 982 N force at 0.5 MPa. If higher thrust is required, stepping up to the 63mm bore yields 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. The G1/4 PT port ensures adequate airflow for the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
At 950mm, the unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. To prevent premature wear on the rod bearing and seals, use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder mechanism. Note that this unit relies on adjustable air cushions at both ends for deceleration; it does not hold loads pneumatically. If the load must remain suspended during a pressure loss, integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or select the SAIL locking variant.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the 50mm bore 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.
Yes, the SAI50X950-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can drop it in as a replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, matching the 50mm bore, 950mm stroke, and G1/4 port.
