This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI200X420S, 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 SI200X420S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 420mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI200X420S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI200X420S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Delivering 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 200 mm bore and 420 mm stroke, it features a G3/4 port and M36x2 rod thread. The direct replacement is the SAI200X420S, matching the exact interface, force, and mounting.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. This -S model carries a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

| 0.7 MPa | 21991 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 3204 kgf | |
The SAI200X420S 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 stable 420 mm travel.
Opens and closes substantial industrial molds on injection machinery, relying on the 50 mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate massive payloads.
To replace the SI200X420S, order the SAI200X420S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 200 mm bore, 420 mm stroke, G3/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread), and mounting accessory. The -S magnet is present for position sensing. Sizing both ways: a 160 mm bore yields 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 200 mm bore hits 21991 N at 0.7 MPa. For this 420 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI200X420S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI200X420S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 200 mm bore, 420 mm stroke, output force, G3/4 port, and mounting fixtures.
The 200 mm bore uses a G3/4 air port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 15708 N push and 15080 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push is 21991 N, and 28274 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI200X420S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
