This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI32X160SCA, 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 SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32X160SCA is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI32X160SCA, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI32X160SCA is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke and CA clevis mounting. It delivers 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI32X160SCA, a direct upgrade sharing the exact same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke and output force.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S suffix denotes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, and Viton H seals can raise the operating temperature to 150 C.

The SAI32X160SCA 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).
Cycles a 32 mm bore to push lightweight machined components out of a fixture, using the 402 N push force to clear the tooling area reliably.
Actuates a routing gate on a packaging line, where the 160 mm stroke and CA clevis accommodate the swing arc to redirect small boxes.
Drives a secondary clamping mechanism in an assembly cell, applying a safe 241 N working load to hold non-rigid materials during processing.
To replace the SI32X160SCA, order the SAI32X160SCA and verify your ISO 15552 CA clevis mount, 160 mm stroke, G1/8 port and -S magnet. If you need more force, the neighbouring 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less is acceptable, check smaller custom options. Because this is a 160 mm stroke, ensure your CA joint alignment prevents side-load rod-bending. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use an external pilot check valve or explore the SAIL lock and SAIF integrated 4M valve variants the SAI family offers.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI32X160SCA is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI32X160SCA. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, G1/8 port and CA clevis, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/8 port. It generates 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The rod end thread is M10x1.25.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI32X160SCA replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
