This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X238S, 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 SI125X238S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 238mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X238S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X238S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125 mm bore, 238 mm stroke, and a G1/2 port. Delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced by the SAI125X238S.
The SAI direct retains identical ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, bore, and output. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure.

| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 6136 N | 5734 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125X238S 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 up to 8590 N at 0.7 MPa for seating large bearings and heavy stamping operations.
Drives robust lifting arms in automated storage systems, moving loads safely under 3682 N.
Secures heavy injection molds with a theoretical maximum holding force of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
To replace the SI125X238S, order the SAI125X238S, confirming the ISO 15552 interface, 125 mm bore, 238 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. If downsizing, a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; if upsizing, a 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. The cushion only decelerates; for load holding on air loss, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 238 mm stroke, rod-bending is minimal, but ensure guide alignment to prevent side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X238S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X238S, matching the 125 mm bore, 238 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
It features a G1/2 port. Forces 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 SAI125X238S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
