This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X370, 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 SI50X370 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 370mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X370, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X370 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder delivering 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 50 mm bore and 370 mm stroke. AirTAC replaced it with the SAI50X370, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/4 port, and 200 kgf maximum output. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept a position sensor.
The SAI replacement introduces an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and extended life. If high-temperature operation is needed, Viton H seals raise the limit to 150 C, while the legacy SI sensor groove accommodates CS1-B or DS1-B switches on magnet-equipped variants.

The SAI50X370 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).
Pushes packages at 30-800 mm/s on packaging lines, using the 982 N thrust to redirect heavier cardboard cartons smoothly.
Acts as a stopper or alignment gate for inbound pallets, where the 50 kg vertical lift capacity and 370 mm reach clear standard pallet bases.
Provides consistent downward pressure for assembling small components, relying on adjustable air cushions to decelerate at stroke end.
To replace the discontinued SI50X370, order the SAI50X370. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the 370 mm stroke, and the G1/4 port. Because this unit has no -S magnet, it cannot support sensing; if switches are required, select an SAI50X370S and use current AirTAC sensors. For sizing, the 50 mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less force is acceptable, a 40 mm bore provides 628 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding, consider the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant, or an external pilot check valve. Finally, at 370 mm, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X370 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X370. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50 mm bore, 370 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 50 mm bore features a G1/4 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. 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. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X370 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
