This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X340, 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 SI50X340 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 340mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X340, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X340 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 340mm stroke. Delivering 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G1/4 port, it is replaced by the SAI50X340. This direct upgrade shares identical ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, bore, stroke and output force.
The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. Without a magnet, this SKU cannot take a sensor. SAIL lock and SAIF valve variants expand options.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI50X340 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 SAI50X340 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 diverting arms on packaging lines using the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa to push cartons reliably onto adjacent belts.
Actuates mid-force clamping fixtures for machining, providing 1374 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa to secure aluminium workpieces.
To replace the SI50X340, order the SAI50X340. Confirm the ISO 15552 interface, 50mm bore, 340mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT) and mounting accessory. This non-magnet SKU cannot accept a sensor. For loads needing holding without live air, use an external rod lock or pilot check valve, or specify the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 340mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side loads. Neighbouring bores: 40mm yields 628 N [email protected]; 63mm yields 1559 N [email protected].
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI50X340 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X340. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 50mm bore, 340mm stroke, output force, G1/4 port and mounting interface.
This double-acting cylinder has a G1/4 port. It delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X340 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
