This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI80X685S, 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 SI80X685S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 685mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI80X685S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI80X685S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an 80 mm bore, delivering 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAI80X685S. It is a direct upgrade: identical bore, 685 mm stroke, G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface, fitting existing fixtures perfectly. The SAI uses an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life.
This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors (the SAI uses current AirTAC switches). You can also specify Viton H seals for 0-150 C heat, or SUS304 rod material. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the 36 mm cushions only decelerate. For held loads, use the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variants.

The SAI80X685S 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 heavy pallets sideways onto parallel conveyor lines using the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa, while the 685 mm stroke clears adjacent guide rails.
Extends 685 mm to secure large fabricated weldments inside a machining fixture, relying on the 36 mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the payload.
To replace the SI80X685S, order the SAI80X685S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G3/8 port threads, and the M20x1.5 rod end. Because this is a 685 mm stroke, prevent side-load and rod-bending by using an external guide to absorb lateral forces. Size both ways: if force is tight, the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N push @0.5 MPa; if downsizing, the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N. This -S SKU uses a magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding on air loss, specify the SAIL air-released lock, BSAI clamp-lock, or an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI80X685S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI80X685S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80 mm bore, 685 mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting your existing fixtures without modification.
The bore is 80 mm with a G3/8 air port and M20x1.5 rod thread. Force ratings are: 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. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
