This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX1000S, 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 SI125BX1000S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX1000S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX1000S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125 mm bore, a 1000 mm stroke, and a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod. It delivers 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX1000S, which shares the same G1/2 port, M27x2 thread, and mounting interface.
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 legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

The SAI125BX1000S 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).
Extracts heavy 313 kg molds from injection presses using the 1000 mm stroke and 6136 N push force.
Transfers loaded pallets along a conveyor, utilizing the G1/2 port for rapid 30-500 mm/s actuation.
Actuates heavy gates in washdown zones where the SUS304 rod option prevents corrosion.
To replace the SI125BX1000S, order the SAI125BX1000S, confirming the ISO 15552 interface, 1000 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and SUS304 rod. If downsizing, an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; if upsizing, a 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss as the cushion only decelerates; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125BX1000S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX1000S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 125 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, force, G1/2 port, and mounting fixtures.
It features a G1/2 air port and M27x2 rod thread. 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, with a theoretical max of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX1000S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
