Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A
The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø100mm bore, 500mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.

About the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A
The AirTAC SAIF100X500-08A is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve. This integrated assembly delivers a 1.40 Cv flow rate and utilizes an AC220V terminal coil drawing 3.5 VA. Because the valve operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa, this defines the practical working pressure for the unit, even though the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa. With a 100mm bore, it generates 7068N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
The manifold connects the valve to the cylinder using O10 x O6.5 PU tubing. By default, the piston rod retracts when the coil is energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve. This self-switching design eliminates remote plumbing, saving panel space for decentralized machine stations. Note that the valve port is 1/4 (code 08) while the cylinder port is 1/2.

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAIF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAIF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
Sized within the valve's 0.15–0.8 MPa range. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

SAIF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For load-holding use a SAIL (lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock).
Where the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A Is Used
Decentralized Assembly Lines
Ideal for large machines where running valve tubing back to a central panel is costly, letting each station control its own heavy 100mm bore actuation locally.
Heavy Material Handling
Provides 7068N of push force at 0.9 MPa for driving heavy fixtures or clamps directly at the workstation without needing external valve hardware.
Space-Constrained Machinery
The integrated 4M310 valve manifold saves valuable footprint inside tight equipment frames by removing the need for separate valve mounting blocks.
Is the Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A the Right Choice?
Choose this 100mm bore when your application requires substantial thrust, such as 5497N push at 0.7 MPa. If you need less force, stepping down to the 80mm bore yields 3518N at 0.7 MPa. The SAIF100X500-08A is ideal when a separate cylinder and remote valve would consume excessive space or wiring. It includes a 500mm stroke, so ensure you provide adequate guide support to prevent rod side-loading. For load-holding applications, remember this 5/2 valve routes air but does not lock the load; consider an AirTAC SAIL lock cylinder instead. When ordering replacements, match the 100mm bore, 500mm stroke, 1/4 valve port, AC220V terminal coil, PT thread, and standard carbon steel rod. No magnet is specified, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be used.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Force at 0.15–0.8 MPa
- ✓ Coil voltage matches panel
- ✓ Terminal vs grommet entry
- ✓ Retract- or extend-when-energised
- ✓ Load-holding → SAIL / BSAI
Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF100X500-08A FAQ
The 100mm bore cylinder generates 7068N of push force at 0.9 MPa. It is paired with a 4M310-08 5/2 valve that has a 25.0 mm2 orifice and a 1.40 Cv flow rate.
No, it has a built-in 4M310-08 valve driven by an AC220V terminal coil. By factory default, energising the coil retracts the rod, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. The 5/2 valve holds position via pilot pressure, not a spring.
