This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X180, 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 SI125X180 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 180mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X180, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X180 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an extruded aluminum barrel and a 180 mm stroke. It delivers 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa through its G1/2 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI125X180, a direct replacement retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, and output force.
The SAI upgrade introduces an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S), meaning it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B legacy sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI125X180 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 6136 N | 5734 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125X180 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 platens in automated metal forming, utilizing the 6136 N push force to shape thick gauge materials reliably.
Secures heavy injection molds within large machinery beds, relying on the rigid ISO 15552 profile barrel for stability.
To replace the discontinued SI125X180, order the SAI125X180. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the 180 mm stroke, and the G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT thread options). Since this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot support position sensing; if switches are needed, specify an SAI125X180S. Sizing context: the neighboring 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 160 mm bore offers 10053 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding, specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or use an external pilot check valve. With a 180 mm stroke, standard guide rails should be used to prevent rod bending under offset loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125X180 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X180. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 180 mm stroke, output force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 air port. 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 of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X180 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
