This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X1800STC, 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 SI50X1800STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 1800mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X1800STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X1800STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 1800mm stroke. It delivers 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa through a G1/4 port. Because 1800mm exceeds the 1200mm standard maximum for this bore, it is a non-standard made-to-order unit. The direct replacement is the SAI50X1800STC, sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, force, and TC trunnion mount.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. For applications needing load holding, the SAI family adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. The -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, and Viton H seals raise operating temps to 150C.

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 workpieces between processing stations over 1800mm distances using the 982N force output.
Extracts totes from deep racking where the TC trunnion mount accommodates the long-rod articulation.
To replace the SI50X1800STC, order the SAI50X1800STC. Confirm the ISO 15552 TC trunnion interface, 50mm bore, 1800mm stroke, G1/4 port, and the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches. When sizing, neighboring bores offer different forces: a 40mm bore provides 628N push at 0.5MPa, while a 63mm bore yields 1559N. A plain cylinder drifts without live air, as the cushion only decelerates; use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant for load holding. At 1800mm, the stroke exceeds the 1200mm standard, so external guides are critical to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X1800STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X1800STC, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 1800mm stroke, G1/4 port, and TC mount.
It has a G1/4 port and provides 982N push / 825N pull at 0.5MPa, 1374N push at 0.7MPa, 1767N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 200kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X1800STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
