This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID125X80, 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 SID125X80 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 80mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID125X80, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID125X80 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston. Both faces use the rod-side area, so push and pull force are equal at 5734 N @0.5 MPa, 8028 N @0.7 MPa, and 10321 N @0.9 MPa. This bore uses a G1/2 air port, a Ø32 mm rod with an M27x2 thread, and 40 mm adjustable cushions. This SID model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID125X80, sharing the same interface, bore, stroke, and mount.
The SAID successor adds an upgraded two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Because the second rod resists torsional deflection, a double-rod layout suits anti-rotation tasks or driving two tools in parallel. With no -S suffix, this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a switch. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAID125X80 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAID125X80 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 forming tools from one piston, utilizing the equal push and pull force of 8028 N @0.7 MPa on both rod ends for balanced, simultaneous work.
Actuates a centering diverter on a heavy-duty conveyor, using the 40 mm adjustable cushions to decelerate the 125 mm bore smoothly at both stroke ends.
To replace the discontinued SID125X80, install the direct replacement SAID125X80, which matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/2 port, and 80 mm stroke. Size both directions by the equal force: if 8028 N @0.7 MPa is excessive, step down to a 100 mm bore (5153 N), or if insufficient, step up to a 160 mm bore (13194 N). A double rod is correct when you need anti-rotation, a back rod to carry a sensor cam, or to drive two tools. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. As this SKU has no -S magnet, sensing is impossible. For stroke lengths >=300 mm, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SID125X80 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID125X80, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, and G1/2 port. The SAI family also adds upgraded seal variants and lock options the SI line lacked.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways at 5734 N @0.5 MPa, 8028 N @0.7 MPa, and 10321 N @0.9 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa, and speed is 30-500 mm/s. A plain cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss; the 40 mm cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock for held loads.
