This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X126S, 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 SI50X126S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 126mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X126S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X126S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50 mm bore, 126 mm stroke, and a built-in piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. It delivers 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI50X126S, a direct upgrade sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/4 port, and accessories.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50X126S 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 SAI50X126S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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).
Pushes medium-weight cartons off a main conveyor line using the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Secures workpieces in machining fixtures where the 50 mm bore provides ample holding without bulk.
Elevates goods up to 50 kg in pick-and-place units, relying on the magnet for position feedback.
To replace the discontinued SI50X126S, order the SAI50X126S keeping the 50 mm bore, 126 mm nonstandard stroke, G1/4 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and -S magnet. Because 126 mm is a nonstandard stroke, confirm availability. The SAI is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. If you need more force, the neighboring 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less is required, the 40 mm bore gives 628 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss as the cushion only decelerates; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X126S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X126S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50 mm bore, 126 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 50 mm bore uses a G1/4 port. Force output is 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. It operates at 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X126S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
