This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI160X1300, 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.
Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300
The AirTAC SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1300mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI160X1300, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300
The AirTAC SI160X1300 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 160 mm bore and 1300 mm stroke, delivering 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It is directly replaced by the SAI160X1300, a direct upgrade retaining the exact interface, G3/4 port, and M36x2 rod thread.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and longevity, alongside SAIL and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line. Note this non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10053 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 14074 N | — |

Where the Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300 Is Used
Heavy Stamp Presses
Drives large stamping dies requiring the full 18095 N output at 0.7 MPa over an extended 1300 mm travel distance.
Automated Transfer Carriages
Shifts bulky automotive components along assembly lines, relying on external guides to mitigate side-load on the long rod.
Replacing the Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300 with the SAI160X1300
To replace the SI160X1300, order the SAI160X1300, confirming the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 1300 mm stroke, and G3/4 port. Because this non-S SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; switch to an SAI-S equivalent if position detection is needed. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 10053 N (pulls 9425 N); neighbouring bores offer 6136 N (125) or 15708 N (200). For this 1300 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. The cushion only decelerates; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAI160X1300
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X1300 FAQ
Yes, the SI160X1300 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI160X1300. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 160 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, force, G3/4 port, and mounting accessories.
