This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125AX475S, 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 SI125AX475S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 475mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125AX475S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125AX475S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore and 475mm stroke. It delivers 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a G1/2 port and a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI125AX475S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, and port size.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line.

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 stamping and forming presses requiring up to 11045 N of thrust at 0.9 MPa, utilizing the adjustable 40mm cushion to halt heavy masses smoothly.
Shifts loaded pallets over 475mm distances where the 125mm bore provides the necessary push force to overcome guide friction without stalling.
Lifts multi-component chassis subframes vertically, safely handling loads near the 313 kg calculated vertical limit when guided by external rails.
To replace the SI125AX475S, order the SAI125AX475S and verify your ISO 15552 mounting fixtures, G1/2 port, and M27x2 rod thread. The built-in magnet (-S) pairs with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, though the SAI successor uses current AirTAC sensors. If sizing alternatives, the neighboring 100mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas the 160mm bore provides 10053 N. Note that a standard cylinder drifts without live air since cushions only decelerate; for load holding, specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or use an external pilot check valve. Finally, at 475mm, this long stroke demands external guides to prevent rod bending and excessive side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125AX475S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125AX475S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 475mm stroke, G1/2 port, and output force, fitting directly into your existing fixtures.
The 125mm bore generates 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa, 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125AX475S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
