This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the drop-in replacement SAI32BX230S, 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 SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX230S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 230mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAI32BX230S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI32BX230S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32mm bore, 230mm stroke, and a SUS304 stainless steel rod. Delivering 402N push force at 0.5MPa, it is replaced by the SAI32BX230S. This drop-in upgrade shares the same G1/8 port, M10x1.25 thread, and mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. For this bore, safe working load is ~241N (60% of 402N) and vertical lift is ~20kg with a 2:1 margin. The -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while SAI uses current switches. SAIL/BSAI lock variants are available.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAI32BX230S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. 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).
Ideal for food or washdown environments utilizing the SUS304 stainless rod for reliable 402N push force on small tooling.
The 32mm bore and 230mm stroke provide precise ejection of lightweight components without occupying excessive machine footprint.
Moves sample trays or testing fixtures up to 20kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin at 0.5MPa operating pressure.
To replace the SI32BX230S, order the SAI32BX230S. Verify the ISO 15552 interface, 32mm bore, 230mm stroke, G1/8 port, and mounting accessory. The -B rod is SUS304 stainless steel, and the -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B switches. At 230mm stroke, guide rods are recommended to prevent side-load and rod-bending. Sizing both ways: this bore yields 402N push at 0.5MPa; a 40mm bore offers 628N. Note that plain cylinders drift on air loss—use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or SAIL/BSAI variant for load holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI32BX230S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32BX230S, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32mm bore, 230mm stroke, G1/8 port, and output force.
It features a G1/8 port. Force output is 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5MPa, 563N push at 0.7MPa, 724N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 82kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI32BX230S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
