This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX100S, 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 SI125BX100S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 100mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX100S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX100S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125mm bore and 100mm stroke. It delivers 6136N push force at 0.5MPa and features a SUS304 stainless piston rod for corrosion resistance. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX100S, 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 SAI family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI125BX100S 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 SAI125BX100S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×100 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 heavy tooling in automated stamping lines, utilizing the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa to form thick gauge materials reliably.
Secures oversized composite molds during curing, relying on the SUS304 stainless rod to resist moisture and corrosion.
To replace the SI125BX100S, order the SAI125BX100S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm stroke, G1/2 port, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. If downsizing, a 100mm bore yields 3927N at 0.5MPa; if upsizing, a 160mm bore yields 10053N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. The SAI upgrade uses an improved seal and adds SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125BX100S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX100S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 125mm bore, 100mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting fixtures.
The bore is 125mm with a G1/2 port. Force output is 6136N push and 5734N pull at 0.5MPa, 8590N push at 0.7MPa, 11045N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 1251 kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX100S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
