This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX25S, 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 SI125BX25S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 25mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX25S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX25S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore and 25mm stroke. Built with a SUS304 stainless piston rod (-B) and a piston magnet (-S), it delivers 6136N push force at 0.5MPa through a G1/2 port. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI125BX25S, a direct sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, stroke, force, and port size.
The SAI125BX25S upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. The SAI family also introduces lock and valve variants the SI lacked, and this -S model accepts legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125BX25S 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 steel plates in machining centers using the 6136N push force, while the SUS304 rod resens coolant corrosion.
Short 25mm stroke actuates heavy-duty diverters on high-capacity packaging lines with rapid 30-500mm/s cycling.
To replace the SI125BX25S, order the SAI125BX25S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, the 125mm bore, 25mm stroke, G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and your mounting accessory. The -B SUS304 rod and -S magnet carry over directly; the -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, while the SAI uses current AirTAC sensors. If you need more force, the 160mm bore offers 10053N push at 0.5MPa; if less is required, the 100mm bore provides 3927N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125BX25S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX25S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 25mm stroke, force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly while upgrading the piston seal.
It features 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 1251kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating speed is 30-500mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX25S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
