This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID160X1000S, 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.
Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S
The AirTAC Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID160X1000S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S
The AirTAC SID160X1000S is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a 40mm rod exits both ends on one piston. This geometry makes push and pull force equal at 9425N @0.5MPa, 13194N @0.7MPa, and 16964N @0.9MPa. The bore dictates a G3/4 port, M36x2 rod thread, and 50mm adjustable cushions. As an end-of-life unit, its direct replacement is the SAID160X1000S, matching the 1000mm stroke, magnet, and mounting interface.
The SAID successor introduces an upgraded two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. The -S suffix denotes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Note that air cushions only decelerate; an external rod lock is required for load holding.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10053 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 14074 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 2050 kgf | |
The SAID160X1000S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S Is Used
Dual-End Transfer Pusher
Drives opposing transfer arms simultaneously from a single 160mm bore, utilizing the equal push and pull force to index heavy pallets without requiring separate actuators.
Anti-Rotation Clamping Press
Uses the twin 40mm rods exiting both ends to prevent mechanical twist during high-tonnage clamping, ensuring the platen remains perfectly parallel under the 13194N @0.7MPa load.
Replacing the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S with the SAID160X1000S
To replace the discontinued SID160X1000S, swap it directly with the SAID160X1000S, retaining the existing ISO 15552 mounting hardware and G3/4 pneumatic plumbing. Size both directions by the equal force curve: 9425N @0.5MPa, stepping to a 200mm bore if more thrust is needed, or down to a 125mm bore if 5734N suffices. A double-rod design is correct when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools from one piston. Because the 1000mm stroke exceeds 300mm, use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAID160X1000S
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID160X1000S FAQ
Yes, the SID160X1000S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID160X1000S, which matches the 160mm bore, 1000mm stroke, G3/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. The SAI family also adds upgraded piston seals and SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 9425N @0.5MPa, 13194N @0.7MPa, and 16964N @0.9MPa. Operating speed is 30-500mm/s. Note that cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock for load holding.
