This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X500SCB, 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 SI125X500SCB is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 500mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X500SCB, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X500SCB is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125 mm bore and 500 mm stroke. It delivers 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G1/2 port. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAI125X500SCB, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, CB clevis, M27x2 thread, and output force.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. Your -S suffix means it has a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

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 material blanks into large stamping presses, utilizing the 6136 N push force to move thick steel plates reliably over the 500 mm travel.
Actuates large diverter gates for heavy wooden pallets in high-throughput distribution centers, where the CB clevis handles pivot stresses.
Pushes substantial injection molds or cast components out of machinery beds, requiring the full 500 mm extension and robust 32 mm rod.
To replace the SI125X500SCB, order the SAI125X500SCB. Verify your ISO 15552 CB clevis mounting, 500 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M27x2 rod thread. Because this is a 500 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. If sizing up or down, note the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N. A plain cylinder drifts without air; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125X500SCB is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X500SCB. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, CB clevis, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G1/2 air port. It generates 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.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X500SCB replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
