This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X200FTC, 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 SI50X200FTC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 200mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X200FTC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X200FTC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an extruded aluminum barrel and adjustable air cushions. It delivers 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI50X200FTC, which matches the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FTC trunnion mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants the SI lacked. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50X200FTC 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 SAI50X200FTC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×200 | 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 sorting arms on packaging lines where 982 N push at 0.5 MPa easily redirects standard cartons via the FTC trunnion mount.
To replace the SI50X200FTC, order the SAI50X200FTC. Verify the ISO 15552 FTC trunnion mount, 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, and G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread options). Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support position sensing; order the SAI50X200FTCS if a switch is required. For sizing both ways, a 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant to hold loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI50X200FTC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X200FTC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, G1/4 port, force, and FTC trunnion mounting interface.
The G1/4 port is fixed by the 50 mm bore. Theoretical forces are 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, 1767 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a maximum force of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The piston rod is 20 mm with an M16x1.5 thread.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X200FTC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
