This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X450LB, 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 SI125X450LB is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 450mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X450LB, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X450LB is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125mm bore and 450mm stroke. It delivers 6136N push and 5734N pull at 0.5MPa via a G1/2 port. The direct replacement is the SAI125X450LB, which shares identical mounting, force, and stroke specifications.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. For applications needing load holding, the SAI family adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. This SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept sensors.

The SAI125X450LB 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 metal castings in machining fixtures, utilizing the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa to hold components rigidly against cutting loads.
Actuates heavy automated pallet flow gates over the 450mm stroke, requiring external guide rails to support the substantial mechanism weight.
Drives large injection mold ejection plates, where the 5734N pull force at 0.5MPa reliably retracts heavy tooling cores without bounce.
To replace the SI125X450LB, order the SAI125X450LB. Verify the ISO 15552 LB foot mounting interface, 125mm bore, 450mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M27x2 rod thread. Because this 450mm stroke is long, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. If sizing alternatives, neighbouring bores change the force: a 100mm bore yields 3927N push, while a 160mm bore yields 10053N at 0.5MPa. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, specify an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. This no-magnet SKU cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X450LB is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X450LB. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 125mm bore, 450mm stroke, LB foot mount, and G1/2 port, so it drops directly into existing fixtures.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 air port and generates 6136N push and 5734N pull at 0.5MPa, 8590N push at 0.7MPa, 11045N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 1251kgf at 1.0MPa. It operates at 30-500mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X450LB replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
