This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI200BX250S, 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 SI200BX250S 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 SAI200BX250S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI200BX250S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 200mm bore and 250mm stroke. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel and a SUS304 stainless piston rod (-B), it delivers 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G3/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI200BX250S, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family adds SAIL lock, SAIF valve, and BSAI clamp-lock variants the SI lacked.

The SAI200BX250S 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 dies requiring 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa with robust 40mm stainless rod endurance.
Actuates massive chassis alignment fixtures where the 200mm bore and ISO 15552 mounting handle substantial inertial loads safely.
Controls the descent of 801 kg vertical loads using adjustable 50mm air cushions to decelerate smoothly at stroke end.
To replace the SI200BX250S, order the SAI200BX250S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/4 port, M36x2 rod thread, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. If you need higher force, the neighboring bore is not larger, but at 0.7 MPa this 200mm bore outputs 21991 N. For lower force, step down to a 160mm bore. Remember, a plain cylinder drifts without live air; the 50mm cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. With a 250mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending risks are low, but ensure proper guide alignment.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI200BX250S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI200BX250S. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 200mm bore, 250mm stroke, output force, G3/4 port, and mounting accessories, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The 200mm bore provides 15708 N push and 15080 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa push is 21991 N, and 28274 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical max force is 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s, and it uses a G3/4 port.
