This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI160X300STC, 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 SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X300STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 300mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI160X300STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI160X300STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 160mm bore and 300mm stroke. It delivers 10053N push force at 0.5MPa via a G3/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI160X300STC, which shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, M36x2 thread, and 50mm cushions.
The SAI upgrade features a new 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 magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| 0.7 MPa | 14074 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 2050 kgf | |
The SAI160X300STC 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 presses requiring 10053N push force at 0.5MPa, utilizing the 300mm stroke to actuate massive tooling beds.
Clamps large structural steel frames in automated welding fixtures, relying on the rigid TC trunnion mount to handle structural side-loads.
To replace the SI160X300STC, order the SAI160X300STC. Confirm the TC trunnion mount, 300mm stroke, G3/4 port, and -S magnet. The SAI is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. If sizing down, a 125mm bore yields 6136N push at 0.5MPa; sizing up to 200mm yields 15708N. For the 300mm stroke, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. The cushion only decelerates near stroke end.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI160X300STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI160X300STC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 160mm bore, 300mm stroke, G3/4 port, and TC mounting interface.
The 160mm bore delivers 10053N push and 9425N pull at 0.5MPa, 14074N push at 0.7MPa, 18095N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 2050kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating speed is 30-500mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI160X300STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
