This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI160X800, 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 SI160X800
The AirTAC SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X800 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 800mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI160X800, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X800
The AirTAC SI160X800 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an 800 mm stroke and a 160 mm bore, delivering 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a Ø40 mm rod, M36x2 thread, and a G3/4 air port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI160X800, a direct replacement sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and port size.
The SAI upgrade utilizes a new piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept position sensors. If you need load holding on air loss, explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants, as standard cushions only decelerate.

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 SI160X800 Is Used
Heavy Stamp Pressing
Drives large stamping dies requiring up to 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa to form thick metal plates in automotive lines.
Large Part Diversion
Pushes heavy fabricated components across wide conveyor belts using the 800 mm stroke without requiring intermediate stops.
Replacing the Airtac SI160 Standard Cylinder SI160X800 with the SAI160X800
To replace the discontinued SI160X800, order the SAI160X800 keeping the identical 160 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, G3/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface. Because this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; if sensing is required, select an SAI model with the magnet option. When sizing, neighboring bores offer different forces: the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. For load holding without live air, a plain cylinder drifts; use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. Finally, at 800 mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-loading.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAI160X800
- ✓ 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 SI160X800 FAQ
Yes, the SI160X800 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI160X800. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 160 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, output force, and G3/4 port, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
This 160 mm bore double-acting cylinder features a G3/4 air port. It delivers 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 maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
