This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI80X280TC, 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 SI80X280TC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 280mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI80X280TC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI80X280TC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an extruded aluminum barrel, adjustable air cushions, and a TC trunnion mount. Delivering 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it uses a G3/8 port and a 25 mm rod with an M20x1.5 thread. The direct replacement is the SAI80X280TC, which matches the bore, stroke, force, port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. This no-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor, unlike legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For high heat, Viton H seals raise the limit to 150 C.

The SAI80X280TC 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).
Secures heavy sheet metal stampings in a press line, utilizing the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa to hold parts firmly during machining operations.
Actuates a TC-mounted routing gate on a 280 mm stroke to redirect heavy pallets between parallel conveyor lanes without requiring external guides.
To replace the SI80X280TC, order the SAI80X280TC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the TC trunnion mount, 80 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and 2513 N output. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept position switches; order a magnet-equipped SAI if you need CS1-B/DS1-B equivalent sensing. If sizing up or down, adjacent bores (63 mm / 100 mm) alter the 0.5 MPa force (1559 N / 3927 N). Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 280 mm stroke, guide the rod to prevent side-load bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI80X280TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI80X280TC. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and TC trunnion mount, 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 max of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI80X280TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
