This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X1200STC, 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 SI50X1200STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 1200mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X1200STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X1200STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 1200mm stroke. Delivering 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features a G1/4 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and a TC trunnion mount. The direct replacement is the SAI50X1200STC, which shares the same interface, force, and porting.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. Your -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

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).
Drives large package pushers across wide conveyor belts using the 1200mm stroke and 982 N force.
Extracts pallets from deep racking where the TC trunnion accommodates pivotal load shifts.
Lowers 50 kg workpieces vertically, relying on external guides to prevent rod bending over 1200mm.
To replace this SI50X1200STC, order the SAI50X1200STC keeping the 50mm bore, 1200mm stroke, TC trunnion mount, and -S magnet. Verify your G1/4 port and M16x1.5 thread. The ISO 15552 mounting dimensions ensure a direct. Sizing both ways: a 63mm bore offers 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 40mm bore gives 628 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 1200mm, prevent rod bending by using an external guide to manage side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X1200STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X1200STC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 50mm bore, 1200mm stroke, TC mount, G1/4 port, and 982 N force.
The G1/4 port bore delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa with a 30-800 mm/s speed range.
