This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID200X250S, 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 SID200X250S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID200X250S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID200X250S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, ensuring push and pull force is equal both ways at 15080 N @0.5 MPa, 21110 N @0.7 MPa, and 27141 N @0.9 MPa. This model is discontinued and is directly replaced by the SAID200X250S. The direct SAI successor shares the exact 200mm bore, 250mm stroke, G3/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface, while upgrading to a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
With a 40mm rod, M36x2 thread, and 50mm adjustable cushions at each end, the SID200X250S operates at 30-500 mm/s. The dual-rod design prevents rotation and allows the back rod to drive a second tool or carry a sensor cam. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

The SAID200X250S 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-rod architecture to drive a machining tool on the front rod and a secondary clamp on the rear rod simultaneously, keeping force equal both ways.
The double-rod design prevents piston rotation during heavy lateral diverting tasks on a high-speed packaging line, ensuring smooth gate actuation.
Leverages the 15080 N @0.5 MPa equal force to lift and lower heavy pallets, using the back rod to mount an external position sensor cam.
To replace the discontinued SID200X250S, install the direct replacement SAID200X250S, matching the 200mm bore, 250mm stroke, G3/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Size both ways using the equal both ways force: 15080 N @0.5, 21110 N @0.7, and 27141 N @0.9 MPa. If force is excessive, step down to the 160mm bore (9425 N @0.5); if insufficient, confirm custom needs. Choose a double-rod cylinder when anti-rotation is required or when the back rod must drive a second tool. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For this 250mm stroke, side-load alignment is minimal, but for strokes >=300mm, ensure guide alignment to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SID200X250S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID200X250S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 200mm bore, 250mm stroke, G3/4 port, and mounting, but features an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 15080 N @0.5 MPa, 21110 N @0.7 MPa, and 27141 N @0.9 MPa. Speed is 30-500 mm/s. It features a 40mm rod, M36x2 thread, and 50mm adjustable cushions. The cushion only decelerates; use an external rod lock for load holding.
