This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125AX290S, 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 SI125 Standard Cylinder SI125AX290S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 290mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125AX290S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125AX290S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore, 290mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M27x2 rod thread. Delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced by the direct replacement SAI125AX290S.
The SAI upgrade retains identical dimensions and force but adds a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure. The -A suffix specifies a SUS420J2 stainless rod, while the -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI125AX290S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125AX290S 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).
Applies up to 11045 N of push force at 0.9 MPa for seating large bearings or forming heavy gauge metal components.
Actuates heavy lane diverters and sorting arms on high-throughput packaging lines with a 290mm travel distance.
To replace the SI125AX290S, order the SAI125AX290S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 290mm stroke, G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT), and mounting accessory. The -S magnet enables CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while -A indicates the SUS420J2 rod. Sizing both ways: a 100mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, and a 160mm bore yields 10053 N. For this 290mm stroke, use a guide to prevent rod bending under side loads. This plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. Speed is 30-500 mm/s.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125AX290S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125AX290S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 290mm stroke, force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
It features a G1/2 air port. Force output is 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa, 11045 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125AX290S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
