This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100X400SH, 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 SI100X400SH is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 400mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100X400SH, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100X400SH is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 400mm stroke. Delivering 3927N push force at 0.5MPa, it features a G1/2 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and a high-temp Viton H seal (0-150C). The direct replacement is the SAI100X400SH, matching the interface, force, and porting.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The original -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAI100X400SH 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).
Drives large presses and stamping dies requiring 3927N push force at 0.5MPa with stable 400mm travel.
Shifts heavy loaded pallets on conveyors, utilizing the 100mm bore for high thrust and smooth cushioning.
Operates in high-temperature forming jigs using the Viton H seal, rated for 0 to 150C environments.
To replace the SI100X400SH, order the SAI100X400SH. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, 100mm bore, 400mm stroke, G1/2 port, and magnet. Sizing both ways: a 125mm bore yields 6136N [email protected], while an 80mm bore yields 2513N. For this 400mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. The cushion only decelerates; it does not hold load. For load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. The SAIF variant integrates a 4M valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI100X400SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100X400SH. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100mm bore, 400mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting interface.
This double-acting cylinder has a G1/2 port. It delivers 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.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100X400SH replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
