This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI32X588S, 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 SI32X588S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 588mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI32X588S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI32X588S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 588 mm stroke. It delivers 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI32X588S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact interface, bore, stroke, and mounting hardware.
The SAI upgrade features a refined piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. The original SI-S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI accepts current AirTAC switches. For high-temperature environments up to 150 C, a Viton H seal option is available.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI32X588S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAI32X588S 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).
Ejects machined components from deep fixtures, relying on the adjustable 27 mm air cushions to decelerate the rod gently at stroke ends.
To replace the SI32X588S, order the SAI32X588S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 588 mm stroke, G1/8 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and the -S magnet for position sensing. If you need more force, the neighbouring 40 mm bore offers 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less force is acceptable, verify your minimum operating pressure. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For secure holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. Because the 588 mm stroke is long, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI32X588S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI32X588S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 32 mm bore, 588 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and mounting interface.
This 32 mm bore cylinder has a G1/8 port. It delivers 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, 724 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI32X588S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
