This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100BX90S, 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 SI100BX90S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 90mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100BX90S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100BX90S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 90mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa through a G1/2 port, it is replaced by the SAI100BX90S. This direct successor shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, stroke, force, and accessories.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure. This -B variant has a SUS304 stainless rod, and the -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI100BX90S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAI100BX90S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×90 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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).
Applies up to 5497 N at 0.7 MPa for seating bearings or forming light parts, utilizing the SUS304 rod in washdown environments.
Pushes heavy pallets off a main conveyor line with a safe 2356 N working load, relying on the 90mm stroke for compact spacing.
To replace the SI100BX90S, order the SAI100BX90S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 90mm stroke, G1/2 port, and SUS304 rod. The -S magnet enables CS1-B/DS1-B sensors (SAI uses current AirTAC switches). For sizing, the 100mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; a smaller 80mm bore yields 2513 N. For load holding, note a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. Use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or SAIL/BSAI lock variant. For 90mm strokes, side-load is minimal, but always guide the rod to prevent bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100BX90S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100BX90S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100mm bore, 90mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting interface.
The G1/2 port feeds the 100mm bore, delivering 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100BX90S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
