This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX650SH, 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 SI100BX650SH is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 650mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX650SH, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX650SH is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 650mm stroke. Featuring a SUS304 stainless piston rod (-B) and Viton H high-temperature seals (0-150 C), it delivers 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX650SH, which matches the G1/2 port, M20x1.5 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The built-in magnet (-S) works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

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).
Secures heavy steel fabrication blocks during machining, utilizing the 5497 N push force at 0.7 MPa with the SUS304 rod resisting coolant corrosion.
Actuates large-scale routing gates on assembly lines, where the 650mm stroke provides full lane clearance for oversized industrial pallets.
To replace the SI100BX650SH, order the SAI100BX650SH. It is a direct per ISO 15552 mounting-interface dimensions, keeping the 100mm bore, 650mm stroke, 5497 N push force at 0.7 MPa, and G1/2 port. Retain your mounting accessory and confirm the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches (legacy used CS1-B/DS1-B). When sizing both ways, a 125mm bore offers 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80mm bore provides 2513 N. Note: at 650mm stroke, prevent rod bending by using an external guide to handle side loads. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding use the SAIL lock, BSAI clamp-lock, or an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100BX650SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX650SH. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 650mm stroke, G1/2 port, and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The G1/2 port bore delivers a push force of 3927 N and pull of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa push is 5497 N, and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. 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 SAI100BX650SH replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
