This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID125X300S, 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 SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID125X300S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 300mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID125X300S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID125X300S is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 5734 N @0.5 MPa, 8028 N @0.7 MPa, and 10321 N @0.9 MPa. It features a 125mm bore, M27x2 rod thread, G1/2 port, and 40mm adjustable cushions. The direct replacement is the SAID125X300S, sharing the same mounting interface, bore, stroke, and force.
The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S suffix provides a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Note that air cushions only decelerate; they do not hold loads on air loss, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for holding.

The SAID125X300S 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).
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously, utilising the equal both-ways force to ensure perfectly balanced clamping on both sides of a heavy workpiece.
Uses the twin-rod architecture to prevent mechanical rotation during high-speed lane diverting on a conveyor, eliminating the need for external guide rails.
Applies 5734 N of force on both the extend and retract strokes to form sheet metal, using the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for precise position feedback.
Replace the discontinued SID125X300S directly with the SAID125X300S, matching the 125mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/2 port, and ISO 15552 dimensions. Size both ways by checking neighbouring bores (100mm or 160mm) against your equal-both-ways force requirement. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, a back rod to carry a sensor cam, or to drive two tools. Mounting uses Basic, FA, LB, or TC styles. For the 300mm stroke, add external guides to prevent rod bending under side-load. The -S magnet enables switches; choose SAIL or BSAI if load-holding is required.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SID125X300S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID125X300S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 125mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/2 port, and equal both-ways force, while adding an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 5734 N @0.5 MPa, 8028 N @0.7 MPa, and 10321 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/2, the rod thread is M27x2, and speed is 30-500 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAID125X300S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
