This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X470, 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 SI125X470 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 470mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X470, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X470 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 125 mm bore and 470 mm stroke. It features a Ø32 mm rod, M27x2 thread, and G1/2 port. The direct replacement is the SAI125X470, matching the interface, force, and mounting exactly.
This SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept a sensor. The SAI upgrade uses two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure. For load holding, note the air cushion only decelerates; use an external rod lock or SAIL variant.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI125X470 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|

| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125X470 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 dies and heavy platens in metal forming, utilizing the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shape thick steel components reliably.
Secures large injection molds on machining centers, requiring the robust 125 mm bore and M27x2 rod thread to maintain rigid positioning.
To replace the SI125X470, order the SAI125X470, confirming the ISO 15552 mounting, 470 mm stroke, and G1/2 port. Because this non-magnet SKU cannot take a switch, add a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor only if migrating to an -S version. For sizing, neighboring bores offer different forces: the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N [email protected], while the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. At 470 mm stroke, prevent rod bending by using an external guide to absorb side loads. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for held loads, specify a pilot check valve or the BSAI clamp-lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X470 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI125X470. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 125 mm bore, 470 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting fixtures.
The G1/2 port bore 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 maximum theoretical force of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at 30-500 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X470 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
