This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAI32BX60 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAI32BX60 in place of this model. 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.
Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60
The AirTAC Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAI32BX60, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60
The AirTAC SI32BX60 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32mm bore and 60mm stroke. It delivers 402N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/8 port. The direct drop-in replacement is the SAI32BX60, which shares identical ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, stroke, and output force.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod and lacks a magnet, meaning it cannot accept a sensor switch. The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 241N (60% of the 402N push force), equating to a 20kg vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI32BX60 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAI32BX60 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.

Where the Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60 Is Used
Small Part Ejection
Ideal for pushing lightweight machined components out of an aluminum fixture using the 402N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Package Diverting
Actuates a routing gate on a packaging line where the 60mm stroke and SUS304 rod provide reliable moisture-resistant motion.
Clamp Actuation
Drives small secondary clamps on a machining center, safely operating within the 241N working load limit.
Replacing the Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60 with the SAI32BX60
To replace the SI32BX60, order the SAI32BX60 ensuring the ISO 15552 interface, 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, G1/8 port, and SUS304 rod option match. Because this non-magnet SKU cannot take a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor, add an external switch bracket if sensing is required. If neighbouring bores are evaluated, a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAI32BX60
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32BX60 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SI32BX60 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32BX60, offering the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, G1/8 port, and force ratings.
This double-acting cylinder has a G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, and 27mm adjustable cushions. Force ratings are 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
