This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX175STC, 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 SI125BX175STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 175mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX175STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX175STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore, 175mm stroke, SUS304 stainless piston rod, and a TC trunnion mount. Delivering 6136N push force at 0.5MPa, it is replaced by the direct replacement SAI125BX175STC. This SAI model shares the exact interface, G1/2 port, and 1251kgf max force, fitting existing fixtures seamlessly.
The SAI upgrade utilizes two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. This -S SKU supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while Viton H seals raise temps to 150C.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125BX175STC 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 6136N at 0.5MPa for seating heavy components and forming operations, utilizing the SUS304 rod in corrosive environments.
Pushes heavy product flows at 30-500mm/s, relying on the 40mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 32mm rod at stroke ends.
To replace the SI125BX175STC, order the SAI125BX175STC. Verify the ISO 15552 TC trunnion mounting, 175mm stroke, G1/2 port, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. The -B SUS304 rod is retained. Sizing both ways: a 100mm bore yields 3927N push at 0.5MPa, while a 160mm bore yields 10053N. At 0.7MPa this 125mm bore pushes 8590N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125BX175STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX175STC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 125mm bore, 175mm stroke, G1/2 port, TC mount, and output force.
It features a G1/2 air port. At 0.5MPa it provides 6136N push and 5734N pull force. At 0.7MPa it pushes 8590N, and 11045N at 0.9MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 1251kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX175STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
