This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX1000S, 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 SI100BX1000S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX1000S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX1000S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod, 1000 mm stroke, and a built-in magnet for position sensing. In this bore size it delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, operating through a G1/2 port with a 36 mm adjustable air cushion at each end. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX1000S, which preserves the original ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, and porting for a seamless fixture swap.
The SAI upgrade introduces a refined piston seal utilizing two Y-shaped one-way elements for extended lifespan and lower start-up pressure. The legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors fit the installed magnet, while the SAI family expands your options with SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants.

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).
Handles vertical lifting of 200 kg payloads using the 100 mm bore, taking advantage of the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa while requiring external guides for the 1000 mm stroke.
Drives large package diverters or sorting gates over extended 1000 mm distances where a robust G1/2 port and 36 mm cushions manage high kinetic energy.
Suitable for food-grade or washdown automation requiring the SUS304 piston rod option, utilizing the built-in magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B end-of-stroke confirmation.
To replace the discontinued SI100BX1000S, order the SAI100BX1000S. Verify that your existing setup matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, G1/2 port (available in PT, G, or NPT), and your specific mounting accessory. The -S magnet and -B SUS304 stainless rod are retained. If you need to size up or down, neighboring bores (80 mm or 125 mm) offer different force classes, with the 100 mm providing 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Because this is a 1000 mm stroke, external guides are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and excessive side loads. A plain cylinder will not hold a load without live air; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, a pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI100BX1000S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX1000S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting interface to fit existing fixtures directly.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 air port. It generates 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 maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
