This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50AX65S, 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 SI50 Standard Cylinder SI50AX65S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 65mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50AX65S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50AX65S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 65mm stroke. Generating 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features a G1/4 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and a built-in magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. The SUS420J2 stainless rod option provides corrosion resistance.
AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI50AX65S, a direct sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, force, and porting. The SAI upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50AX65S 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 | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAI50AX65S 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).
Ideal for mid-force clamping tasks where the SUS420J2 stainless piston rod resists moisture and coolant splashes during machining operations.
Provides reliable 65mm actuation to push or divert packages on a line, utilizing the 982 N thrust at 0.5 MPa for consistent positioning.
To replace the SI50AX65S, order the SAI50AX65S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting fixtures, the G1/4 air port, and the M16x1.5 rod thread. The -S magnet enables current AirTAC switches, while the -A rod specifies SUS420J2 stainless steel. If you need more force, the 63mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less is required, the 40mm bore provides 628 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI50AX65S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50AX65S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 65mm stroke, G1/4 port, and output force, fitting directly into your existing fixtures.
The G1/4 port supplies a 20mm rod. Force output is 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 1767 N push at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50AX65S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
