This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100AX180S, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.

The AirTAC Airtac SI100 Standard Cylinder SI100AX180S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 180mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100AX180S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100AX180S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 180mm stroke. It delivers 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/2 port. The direct replacement is the SAI100AX180S, matching the bore, stroke, force, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a new piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants the SI lacked. The -A rod is SUS420J2 stainless steel, and the -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAI100AX180S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Applies 3927 N at 0.5 MPa to seat bearings and assemble tight-tolerance components in automated machinery.
To replace the SI100AX180S, order the SAI100AX180S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 180mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting accessory. The -S magnet enables CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the -A rod specifies SUS420J2 stainless steel. Sizing both ways: a neighbouring 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas a 125mm bore yields 6136 N. For load holding, note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss as the cushion only decelerates; use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 180mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending risks are low, but ensure guide alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100AX180S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100AX180S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100mm bore, 180mm stroke, force, G1/2 port, and mounting fixtures.
This double-acting cylinder features a G1/2 port. It delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100AX180S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
