This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX225S, 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 SI100BX225S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 225mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX225S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX225S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore, 225mm stroke, SUS304 stainless rod, and piston magnet. Delivering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced by the SAI100BX225S. This direct successor shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/2 port, and force ratings, fitting existing fixtures seamlessly.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAI100BX225S 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).
Drives heavy-duty stamping and forming dies requiring high push force, utilizing the robust 100mm bore and SUS304 rod for reliable actuation.
Powers heavy side-diverter arms on high-throughput conveyor belts, using the 225mm stroke to fully clear wide pallet traffic.
To replace the SI100BX225S, order the SAI100BX225S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 225mm stroke, G1/2 port, and your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.). The -S magnet and -B SUS304 rod must be specified on the new order. If sizing down, an 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa; sizing up to 125mm provides 6136 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 225mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but always guide the rod to prevent bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100BX225S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX225S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100mm bore, 225mm stroke, force, G1/2 port, and mounting interface.
The 100mm bore features a G1/2 port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push is 5497 N, and at 0.9 MPa it is 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100BX225S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
