This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX80S, 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 SI100BX80S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 80mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX80S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX80S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100mm bore, 80mm stroke, and a SUS304 stainless steel rod. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced by the SAI100BX80S. This direct upgrade shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/2 port, and M20x1.5 thread, fitting existing fixtures perfectly. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped elements for low start-up pressure, and adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants.
The -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches. Note that standard cylinders drift without live air; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for load holding.

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 metal workpieces in machining fixtures, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to prevent movement during milling or drilling operations.
Actuates heavy-duty routing gates on automated assembly lines, where the 200 kg vertical lift capacity and 80mm stroke provide robust and reliable payload redirection.
Raises bulk packaged goods between conveyor tiers, relying on the SUS304 stainless rod for corrosion resistance in washdown or humid distribution center environments.
To replace the SI100BX80S, order the SAI100BX80S, confirming the ISO 15552 interface, 100mm bore, 80mm stroke, G1/2 port, and SUS304 rod. The direct SAI keeps the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. If downsizing, a 80mm bore yields 2513 N push; if upsizing, a 125mm bore provides 6136 N. Remember, a plain cylinder drifts without air; for load holding, specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or use an external pilot check valve. The built-in magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, and the SAI family adds SAIF self-valve options (bores 32-100).
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI100BX80S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX80S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, maintaining the same 100mm bore, 80mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting interface, so it drops directly into existing fixtures.
This double-acting cylinder features a G1/2 air port and an M20x1.5 rod thread. Theoretical forces are 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 maximum force of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
