This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI160X336SFB, 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 SI160X336SFB is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 336mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI160X336SFB, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI160X336SFB is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Delivering 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G3/4 port, it is replaced by the SAI160X336SFB. This direct upgrade shares the exact bore, stroke, force, and FB flange mounting interface. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds lock and valve variants the SI lacked.
The original SI magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches. High-temperature Viton H seals extend operation to 150 C.

The SAI160X336SFB 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 and press fixtures where the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa is required for forming or stamping operations.
Secures oversized components during machining using the FB flange mount to handle substantial clamping forces rigidly.
To replace the SI160X336SFB, order the SAI160X336SFB. Verify the ISO 15552 interface, 160 mm bore, 336 mm stroke, G3/4 port, and FB flange mounting. The S magnet enables position sensing. If you need higher force, the 200 mm bore offers 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa; for less, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. Because the 336 mm stroke creates leverage, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side loads. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI160X336SFB is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI160X336SFB. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 160 mm bore, 336 mm stroke, FB flange mount, and G3/4 port.
It features a G3/4 port and a 40 mm rod. Force output is 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push at 0.7 MPa, 18095 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI160X336SFB replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
