This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100X235, 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 SI100X235 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 235mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100X235, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100X235 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 235mm stroke. It delivers 3927N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/2 port. Because 235mm is a non-standard stroke length, it requires custom sizing. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI100X235, a direct replacement retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36mm cushions.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. Note this SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For high-heat environments, Viton H seals raise the operating range to 0-150C.

The SAI100X235 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).
Secures large metal castings in machining fixtures, utilizing the 3927N push force at 0.5MPa to hold components rigidly against cutting forces.
Actuates heavy-duty lane deflectors on high-throughput packaging lines, relying on the 36mm adjustable air cushions to absorb end-of-stroke impact.
To replace the discontinued SI100X235, order the SAI100X235. Confirm your ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G1/2 port thread (PT/G/NPT), and the 235mm non-standard stroke requirement. This no-magnet SKU cannot support position sensing; if switches are needed, specify the SAI100X235S. Sizing checks: a neighboring 80mm bore yields 2513N push at 0.5MPa, while stepping up to 125mm provides 6136N. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts without live air—the cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For load holding on air loss, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. At 235mm, ensure guide rails carry side loads to prevent rod bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100X235 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI100X235. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 100mm bore, 235mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting interface, so it fits existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 air port. It generates 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 SAI100X235 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
