This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X300STC, 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 SI50X300STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 300mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X300STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X300STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 300mm stroke. It delivers 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa via a G1/4 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI50X300STC, a direct sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and TC trunnion accessory.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals 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 SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50X300STC 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 SAI50X300STC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

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 a 300mm diverting arm on a packaging line, using the TC trunnion to pivot packages smoothly between parallel conveyor belts.
Raises and lowers a 50kg access gate.
Pushes machined parts out of a CNC enclosure. The adjustable 30mm air cushions absorb kinetic energy at stroke ends, while the -S magnet tracks position.
To replace the SI50X300STC, order the SAI50X300STC. Confirm the ISO 15552 TC trunnion mount, 50mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread options) and the -S magnet. Sizing both ways: a 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa, while a 40mm bore yields 628N. If you need to hold the load on air loss, note that a plain SAI drifts and its cushion only decelerates; use an external pilot check valve, rod lock, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. Because the 300mm stroke is long, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X300STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X300STC. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 300mm stroke, output force, G1/4 port and TC trunnion mount, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The 50mm bore uses a G1/4 air port and an M16x1.5 rod thread. Force output is 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa, 1374N push at 0.7MPa, 1767N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 200kgf at 1.0MPa. It operates at 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X300STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
