This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI200BX280, 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 SI200BX280 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 280mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI200BX280, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI200BX280 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 200 mm bore and 280 mm stroke. It delivers 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G3/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI200BX280, matching the interface, force, and mounting exactly.
This SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot accept a sensor. The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure. The -B rod is SUS304 stainless.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 3204 kgf | |
The SAI200BX280 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).
Applies up to 21991 N at 0.7 MPa for stamping and forming thick metal components in automated lines.
Shifts heavy loaded pallets along conveyors, utilizing the 280 mm stroke to index large loads reliably.
Secures large fabricated steel structures during welding or machining using the 3204 kgf maximum clamping force.
To replace the SI200BX280, order the SAI200BX280. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 280 mm stroke, G3/4 port, and SUS304 rod. Since this stroke is 280 mm, add external guide rails to prevent rod bending under side loads. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. If downsizing, neighbor bore 160 offers 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa. This no-magnet SKU cannot take CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI200BX280 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI200BX280. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, keeping the same 200 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, force, and G3/4 port.
It has a G3/4 port. Force output is 15708 N push and 15080 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 21991 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI200BX280 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
