This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X530S, 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 SI125X530S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 530mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X530S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X530S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore and 530mm stroke. Delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced directly by the SAI125X530S. This direct successor retains the exact G1/2 port, M27x2 rod thread, and mounting interface, fitting existing fixtures seamlessly.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. Your -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125X530S 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 metal forming with 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, relying on the 40mm adjustable air cushions to absorb impact at stroke ends.
Secures heavy workpieces during machining, using the G1/2 port for high flow rates to maintain rapid 30-500 mm/s cycling.
To replace the SI125X530S, order the SAI125X530S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 530mm stroke, G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and your mounting accessory. The -S magnet equates to current AirTAC switches on the SAI (legacy used CS1-B/DS1-B). Sizing both ways: a 100mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 160mm bore yields 10053 N. For a 530mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. A plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X530S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X530S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 125mm bore, 530mm stroke, output force, G1/2 port, and mounting interface, but features an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal.
The bore is 125mm with a G1/2 air port and M27x2 rod thread. Force ratings are: push 6136 N and pull 5734 N at 0.5 MPa, push 8590 N at 0.7 MPa, push 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max 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 SAI125X530S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
