This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID50X700, 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 SID50X700 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 700mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID50X700, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID50X700 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, making the push and pull force equal at 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot carry a sensor. It is discontinued, replaced by the SAID50X700 direct: same 50mm bore, 700mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting. The SAI upgrade uses a two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure.
With equal force both ways, the back rod can drive a second tool or carry a sensor cam on a twin-setup. Note that air cushions only decelerate; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAID50X700 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAID50X700 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 equal both-ways force to push and retract parts at two separate workstations simultaneously without stroke variation.
The twin rods provide inherent anti-rotation, holding a workpiece securely from both ends during milling or drilling.
To replace the discontinued SID50X700, use the SAID50X700 direct, keeping the ISO 15552 interface, G1/4 port, and 30mm adjustable cushions. Size both ways by checking neighbour bores if you need more or less equal force. Choose a double-rod when you need anti-rotation or to drive two tools. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so no sensors. For the 700mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SID50X700 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID50X700, which matches the 50mm bore, 700mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. The SAI family also adds an upgraded two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/4. Air cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock for load holding.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAID50X700 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
