This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X150SN, 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 SI50X150SN is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X150SN, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X150SN is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 150mm stroke. It delivers 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa through a G1/4 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI50X150SN direct replacement, retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, output force, and M16x1.5 rod thread.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. The NBR (-N) seal handles -20 to +70C, with a Viton H option available. The built-in magnet (-S) supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50X150SN 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 SAI50X150SN produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -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).
Drives diverting arms on packaging lines where the 982N push force at 0.5MPa easily redirects standard cartons.
Secures medium workpieces during machining, relying on the 825N pull force and 30mm adjustable cushions.
To replace the SI50X150SN, order the SAI50X150SN. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, the 150mm stroke, the G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and the -S magnet for current AirTAC switch compatibility. Sizing both ways: a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa, while a 63mm bore yields 1559N. For this 150mm stroke, standard guides handle side loads well, but always verify rod-bending limits if lifting off-axis. Because standard cylinders drift on air loss, use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X150SN is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X150SN. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 150mm stroke, G1/4 port, and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 50mm bore features a G1/4 port. It generates 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa, 1374N push at 0.7MPa, and 1767N at 0.9MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 200kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X150SN replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
