This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI200BX250, 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 Airtac SI200 Standard Cylinder SI200BX250 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI200BX250, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI200BX250 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 200 mm bore and 250 mm stroke. It delivers 15708 N push and 15080 N pull at 0.5 MPa, operating through a G3/4 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI200BX250. This current-production direct maintains the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and port size, fitting existing fixtures seamlessly.
The SAI upgrade features a refined piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot accept a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor. The SAI family also introduces SAIL and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line.

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 presses and stamping dies requiring up to 28274 N of thrust at 0.9 MPa.
Secures large fabricated components during machining with a robust 15708 N push force.
To replace the SI200BX250, order the SAI200BX250. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC), the 250 mm stroke, and the G3/4 port. Because this SKU has no magnet, it cannot support position sensing; if switches are needed, select an SAI200BX250S and use current AirTAC sensors. Sizing checks: a 160 mm bore yields 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 200 mm bore hits 21991 N at 0.7 MPa. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so for load holding use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. For any stroke over 300 mm, guide the load to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI200BX250 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI200BX250. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 200 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, force, G3/4 port, and mounting accessories.
It features a G3/4 port and provides 15708 N push / 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. It operates at 30-500 mm/s with a 50 mm adjustable cushion.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI200BX250 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
