This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X510STC, 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 SI50X510STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 510mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X510STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X510STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 510mm stroke. It delivers 982N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI50X510STC, matching the bore, stroke, force, port and TC trunnion mount exactly.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family adds SAIL, SAIF and BSAI lock variants. The original -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAI50X510STC 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 across a 510mm lane span on a sorting line, utilizing the 982N thrust to actuate routing flaps reliably.
Extends 510mm to halt pallets at a TC-mounted trunnion checkpoint, handling the impact via the ISO 15552 profile barrel.
To replace the SI50X510STC, order the SAI50X510STC. Verify the ISO 15552 interface, 50mm bore, 510mm stroke, G1/4 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, TC trunnion mount and the -S magnet. At 0.5MPa it yields 982N push and 825N pull; if undersized, the 63mm bore offers 1559N. Because stroke is 510mm, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X510STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X510STC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 50mm bore, 510mm stroke, 982N force, G1/4 port and TC mounting interface.
The bore is 50mm with a G1/4 air port. At 0.5MPa it provides 982N push and 825N pull force. At 0.7MPa push is 1374N, and at 0.9MPa it is 1767N. The theoretical maximum force is 200kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI50X510STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
