This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X950S, 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 SI125X950S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 950mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X950S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X950S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an extruded aluminum barrel and a built-in piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 125 mm bore and 950 mm stroke, it is replaced by the SAI125X950S. This direct successor matches the G1/2 port, M27x2 rod thread, and mounting interface exactly.
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 and BSAI lock variants absent from the SI line, while rod material options include SUS420J2 or SUS304.

The SAI125X950S 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 heavy-duty stamping dies requiring 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa over a 950 mm travel distance.
Shifts loaded pallets along extended 950 mm conveyor sections, utilizing the 313 kg vertical lift capacity.
Opens and closes heavy industrial machinery access doors, benefiting from the 125 mm bore and G1/2 air port.
To replace the SI125X950S, order the SAI125X950S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 950 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and the -S magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches (the SAI uses current AirTAC switches). Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s. For sizing alternatives, the neighboring 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI variants. Because the 950 mm stroke is long, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125X950S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X950S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 125 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, output force, G1/2 port, and mounting fixtures.
This double-acting cylinder features a G1/2 air port. The force ratings are: 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 SAI125X950S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
