This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX140S, 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 SI125BX140S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 140mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX140S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX140S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125 mm bore and 140 mm stroke. It delivers 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI125BX140S, a direct sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/2 port, M27x2 thread, and force ratings. This specific unit features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and a built-in magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.
The upgraded SAI family introduces an advanced piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements, ensuring long life and low start-up pressure. Note that a standard cylinder will drift if air is lost; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For secure load holding, explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants.

The SAI125BX140S 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).
Secures large metal workpieces in machining centers using the 6136 N push force, while the SUS304 rod resists coolant corrosion.
Drives robust lifting mechanisms on assembly lines, relying on the 125 mm bore and 140 mm stroke for high-thrust cycles.
To replace the SI125BX140S, order the SAI125BX140S. Verify your existing fixture matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 140 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M27x2 rod thread. Because this unit has the -S magnet, it supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, though the SAI replacement uses current AirTAC sensors. If you need to adjust force, a 100 mm bore offers 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold load without live air; for drop protection, specify the SAIL air-released lock, the BSAI clamp-lock, or an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125BX140S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX140S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 140 mm stroke, output force, G1/2 port, and mounting accessories, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 air port and M27x2 rod thread. It delivers 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 force of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX140S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
