This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI80AX290S, 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 SI80 Standard Air Cylinder SI80AX290S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 290mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI80AX290S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI80AX290S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an extruded aluminum barrel, delivering 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa. It features a 25 mm SUS420J2 stainless piston rod (A option), M20x1.5 thread, G3/8 port, and a built-in magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI80AX290S.
The SAI direct maintains the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 290 mm stroke, force, and port size. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI80AX290S 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 | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAI80AX290S 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).
Actuates heavy lane diverters on packaging lines, utilizing the 2513 N push force to shift loaded pallets smoothly at 0.5 MPa.
Drives ejection arms in stamping presses, where the 36 mm adjustable air cushions absorb kinetic energy at the 290 mm stroke end.
To replace the SI80AX290S, order the SAI80AX290S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting fixture, 80 mm bore, 290 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches. Sizing both ways: a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push, while a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. For this 290 mm stroke, guide external rods to prevent side-load bending. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI80AX290S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI80AX290S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80 mm bore, 290 mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 80 mm bore uses a G3/8 port. It delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI80AX290S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
