This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI200AX165S, 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 SI200 Standard Cylinder SI200AX165S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 165mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI200AX165S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI200AX165S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 200mm bore and 165mm stroke. Delivering 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features a SUS420J2 stainless piston rod, a G3/4 air port, and a piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. AirTAC replaced this end-of-line unit with the SAI200AX165S.
The SAI200AX165S is a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and force. It features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

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 pressing and stamping fixtures requiring up to 21991 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa, utilizing the robust 40mm piston rod.
Secures heavy fabricated steel components during welding or machining, providing 15080 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
To replace the SI200AX165S, order the SAI200AX165S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting interface, 165mm stroke, G3/4 port, and the -A SUS420J2 rod material. Because of the -S magnet, you can use legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, though the SAI replacement family uses current AirTAC switches. Sizing both ways: this 200mm bore yields 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa; dropping to a 160mm bore gives 10053 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or specify an SAIL or BSAI lock variant. For this 165mm stroke, ensure guide alignment to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI200AX165S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI200AX165S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 200mm bore, 165mm stroke, G3/4 port, and force ratings, fitting your existing fixtures perfectly.
The 200mm bore provides 15708 N push and 15080 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 21991 N push at 0.7 MPa, 28274 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s, with a 50mm adjustable air cushion at both ends.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI200AX165S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
