This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100X312S, 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 SI100X312S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 312mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100X312S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100X312S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 312mm stroke. It delivers 3927N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/2 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI100X312S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, stroke, and output force.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. The S suffix denotes a piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAI100X312S 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).
Actuates large deflectors or pushers on high-capacity packaging lines to route heavy pallets or bulk containers.
Provides the extended reach and 3927N force needed to index loaded pallets into strapping or wrapping stations.
Ejects dense formed parts from machining centers, utilizing the full 312mm stroke to clear the work envelope safely.
To replace the SI100X312S, order the SAI100X312S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G1/2 port, and the magnet. Sizing both ways: a neighbouring 80mm bore yields 2513N [email protected], while a 125mm bore yields 6136N. At 0.7MPa this 100mm bore pushes 5497N. Note that 312mm is a nonstandard stroke exceeding standard increments, and at this length you must account for side-load and rod-bending by using external guides to prevent premature wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100X312S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI100X312S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 312mm stroke, force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 port. It generates 3927N push and 3681N pull at 0.5MPa, 5497N push at 0.7MPa, 7068N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 801kgf at 1.0MPa. The 312mm stroke is nonstandard.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100X312S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
