This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X650S, 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 SI125X650S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 650mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X650S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X650S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125mm bore and 650mm stroke. Generating 6136N push force at 0.5MPa, it features a G1/2 port, M27x2 rod thread, and a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAI125X650S, a direct upgrade sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and force.
The SAI replacement introduces an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also adds variants the SI lacked, like the SAIL air-released lock and BSAI clamp-lock, while offering Viton H seals for high-temperature environments up to 150C.

The SAI125X650S 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 press fixtures requiring high force, delivering 6136N at 0.5MPa with smooth adjustable air cushioning at stroke ends.
Actuates heavy-duty diverter arms over a 650mm reach, requiring external load guides to prevent excessive rod bending during transit.
To replace the discontinued SI125X650S, order the SAI125X650S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 650mm stroke, G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and your specific mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.). The -S suffix means a magnet is present for CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI replacement uses current AirTAC switches. Sizing both ways: a neighbouring 100mm bore yields 3927N push at 0.5MPa, while a 160mm bore yields 10053N. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use the SAIL/BSAI lock variant or an external pilot check valve for holding. With a 650mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to minimize side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI125X650S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X650S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125mm bore, 650mm stroke, output force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly while upgrading the piston seal.
The 125mm bore uses a G1/2 port. It generates 6136N push and 5734N pull at 0.5MPa, 8590N push at 0.7MPa, 11045N push at 0.9MPa, 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 SAI125X650S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
