This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI50X710S, 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 SI50X710S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 710mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI50X710S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI50X710S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 50mm bore and 710mm stroke. Delivering 982N push force at 0.5MPa through a G1/4 port, it is replaced by the SAI50X710S. This direct upgrade shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and mounting accessories, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SI50X710S includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants previously unavailable.

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 transfer line using the full 710mm extension, relying on the 982N force at 0.5MPa to overcome guide friction.
Ejects molded parts from a press area, utilizing the 30mm adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the 20mm rod smoothly.
To replace the SI50X710S, order the SAI50X710S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, the 50mm bore, 710mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and your mounting accessory (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC). The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI replacement uses current AirTAC switches. If you need more force, the 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa; if less is required, the 40mm bore yields 628N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air and the cushions only decelerate—for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. Because the 710mm stroke is long, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI50X710S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI50X710S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 50mm bore, 710mm stroke, 982N force, G1/4 port, and mounting interface. You simply order the SAI equivalent for a seamless fixture fit.
The bore is 50mm with a G1/4 air port. At 0.5MPa it provides 982N push and 825N pull force. At 0.7MPa the push force is 1374N, and at 0.9MPa it is 1767N. The theoretical maximum force is 200kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating speed is 30-800mm/s.
