This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID160X350, 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 SID160X350 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 350mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID160X350, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID160X350 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal at 9425 N @0.5 MPa, 13194 N @0.7 MPa, and 16964 N @0.9 MPa. This SKU is discontinued and replaced by the direct replacement SAID160X350, retaining the exact 160mm bore, 350mm stroke, G3/4 port, and mounting interface. The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, the back rod can drive a second tool or carry a sensor cam without force loss. With no -S magnet, this SKU cannot take a magnetic switch. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the 50mm adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

The SAID160X350 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).
Uses the dual extending rods to drive two identical cutting tools simultaneously, ensuring perfectly synchronized machining cycles with equal push and pull force.
Mounts a pusher head on the front rod and a sensor cam on the back rod, delivering 9425 N @0.5 MPa of consistent force both ways without requiring a larger single-rod push cylinder.
To replace the discontinued SID160X350, swap it directly for the SAID160X350, reusing the genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC) without bracket changes. Size both ways by checking neighbor bores: if 13194 N @0.7 MPa is excessive, step down to bore 125; if more force is needed, step up to bore 200. A double rod is right when you need equal both-ways force, anti-rotation stability, or a rear rod to carry a sensor cam. This SKU lacks a -S magnet, so it cannot accept legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For the 350mm stroke, add external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SID160X350 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID160X350, which keeps the same ISO 15552 interface, 160mm bore, 350mm stroke, G3/4 port, and equal both-ways force. The SAI family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI line lacked.
Force is equal both ways at 9425 N @0.5 MPa, 13194 N @0.7 MPa, and 16964 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G3/4, the rod thread is M36x2, and speed is 30-500 mm/s. It features a 50mm adjustable cushion at each end.
