This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX880S, 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 SI100BX880S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 880mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX880S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX880S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 880mm stroke. Delivering 3927N push force at 0.5MPa, it features a SUS304 stainless piston rod (B option), a G1/2 port, and a built-in magnet (S) for CS1-B/DS1-B legacy sensors. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI100BX880S.
The SAI100BX880S is the direct successor: identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and force. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life.

The SAI100BX880S 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).
Pushes heavy pallets across 880mm transfer lines using the 3927N thrust at 0.5MPa, guided externally to prevent rod bending.
Ejects formed parts from machinery, relying on the 36mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 100mm bore at stroke ends.
To replace the SI100BX880S, order the SAI100BX880S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting fixture, the G1/2 port, the M20x1.5 rod thread, and the -BS options (SUS304 rod and magnet for current AirTAC switches). Sizing both ways: this 100mm bore yields 3927N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to an 80mm bore gives 2513N, while a 125mm bore provides 6136N. Because stroke is 880mm, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100BX880S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX880S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 880mm stroke, G1/2 port, and force ratings, but features an upgraded two Y-shaped piston seal for longer life.
The G1/2 port is fixed by the 100mm bore. Force outputs are: 3927N push and 3681N pull at 0.5MPa, 5497N push at 0.7MPa, 7068N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 801kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating speed is 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100BX880S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
