This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50BX195, 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 SI50 Standard Cylinder SI50BX195 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 195mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50BX195, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50BX195 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 195 mm stroke. It delivers 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI50BX195, matching the interface, bore, stroke, force, and mounting.
This SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a sensor, though the SUS304 rod option resists corrosion.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50BX195 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAI50BX195 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).
Actuates routing gates on packaging lines where the 982 N push force easily deflects standard cartons.
Controls pallet flow on roller conveyors, using the 195 mm stroke to raise and lower physical stop blocks.
To replace the SI50BX195, order the SAI50BX195 to keep the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 195 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and 30 mm cushions. Confirm your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC) and thread type (PT/G/NPT). Since this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; order a magnet-equipped SAI if position detection is needed. For sizing, the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50BX195 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50BX195, which shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50 mm bore, 195 mm stroke, and G1/4 port.
It features a G1/4 port and delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50BX195 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
