This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X1600, 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 SI125X1600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1600mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X1600, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X1600 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125 mm bore and 1600 mm stroke. Because 1600 mm exceeds the 1500 mm standard maximum, this is a non-standard made-to-order unit. It delivered 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/2 port.
The direct replacement is the SAI125X1600. It shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, M27x2 rod thread, and force class. The SAI upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot take a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor.

The SAI125X1600 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 heavy pallets across extended machining centers, utilizing the 6136 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to push loads securely over the full 1600 mm travel.
Actuates large fixture clamps or positioning arms where a robust 125 mm bore and 40 mm adjustable cushion are needed to decelerate heavy masses.
To replace the SI125X1600, order the SAI125X1600. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.) and the G1/2 port. Because this is a 1600 mm non-standard stroke exceeding the 1500 mm max, specify made-to-order and add an external guide to prevent rod bending under side loads. Sizing both ways: the neighboring 100 mm bore yields 3927 N [email protected], while the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. A plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. The SAI family also adds the SAIF valve variant, though only for bores 32-100.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X1600 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X1600. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, maintaining the same bore, stroke, force, G1/2 port, and mounting interface.
It features a 32 mm rod, M27x2 thread, 40 mm cushion, and speed of 30-500 mm/s. Force ratings are: push 6136 N and pull 5734 N at 0.5 MPa, push 8590 N at 0.7 MPa, push 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X1600 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
