This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI80BX250H, 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 SI80BX250H is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI80BX250H, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI80BX250H is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an 80mm bore and 250mm stroke. It delivers 2513N push force at 0.5MPa via a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI80BX250H, matching the interface, force, and port exactly. This specific SKU includes a -B SUS304 stainless piston rod for corrosion resistance and a -H Viton seal rated for 0-150C.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. Note this SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAI80BX250H 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 clamping fixtures in heated environments up to 150C using the Viton H seal and SUS304 rod.
Pushes 128kg vertical loads or heavy pallets at 30-800mm/s with 2513N thrust at 0.5MPa.
Deploys the SUS304 stainless rod in washdown or chemical zones to resist rust and pitting.
To replace the SI80BX250H, order the SAI80BX250H. It is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, retaining the 80mm bore, 250mm stroke, G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36mm cushions. Verify your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.) and high-temp Viton H requirement. Sizing both ways: a 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa, while a 100mm bore yields 3927N. For load holding, note a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. Use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. At 250mm stroke, ensure guide alignment to prevent rod bending side-loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI80BX250H is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI80BX250H. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80mm bore, 250mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The bore dictates a G3/8 port. Force ratings are: 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, 3518N push at 0.7MPa, 4523N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 513kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI80BX250H replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
