This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125BX950S, 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 SI125BX950S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 950mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125BX950S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125BX950S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod and a 950 mm stroke. It delivers 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa through its G1/2 port. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX950S, matching the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and longevity. The original -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current switches. A plain cylinder drifts without live air; use the SAIL or BSAI lock variant for load holding.

The SAI125BX950S 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).
Drives large stamping press ejectors, utilizing the 6136 N push force to reliably clear heavy metal blanks from deep dies.
Actuates automated pallet dispensing magazines, where the 950 mm stroke separates and feeds empty pallets into high-bay lines.
Lowers heavy material lifts in assembly zones, requiring external guides to prevent rod bending across the 950 mm extension.
To replace the SI125BX950S, order the SAI125BX950S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, G1/2 port, M27x2 thread, and -S magnet. The SUS304 (-B) rod is standard here. Sizing both ways: the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa (8590 N at 0.7), while the adjacent 100 mm bore offers 3927 N. For load holding on air loss, the cushion only decelerates; add an external pilot check valve or use the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. At 950 mm, prevent rod bending with external guides to manage side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125BX950S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125BX950S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same bore, stroke, force, G1/2 port, and mounting interface.
It features a G1/2 port. The force ratings are: 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 maximum theoretical force of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125BX950S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
