This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID80X60S, 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 SID80X60S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 60mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAID80X60S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID80X60S 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 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. This 80mm bore model features a 25mm piston rod, M20x1.5 rod-end thread, 36mm adjustable air cushions at each end, and a fixed G3/8 air port. The SID80X60S is discontinued and end-of-life; the direct replacement is the SAID80X60S, sharing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and equal-both-ways force.
The SAI replacement family introduces an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life, plus new SAIL and BSAI lock variants. Because the rod exits both ends, the back rod can carry a sensor cam or drive two tools while resisting rotation. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI replacement uses current AirTAC switches.

The SAID80X60S 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 machining heads simultaneously from one piston, utilizing the equal both-ways force to maintain perfectly balanced cutting pressure on both ends.
Uses the dual exiting rods to mechanically prevent piston rotation during lateral package diversion on a conveyor, ensuring the gate stays perfectly aligned.
Lifts a 116 kg vertical payload using the back rod as a sensor cam carrier while the front rod lifts the jig, keeping forces identical in both travel directions.
To replace the discontinued SID80X60S, specify the SAID80X60S direct: it preserves the 80mm bore, 60mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface without frame alterations. Size both ways using the equal force ratings (2268 N @0.5, 3175 N @0.7, 4082 N @0.9); if less force is needed, the neighbouring 63mm bore yields 1402 N @0.5, while the 100mm bore provides 3681 N @0.5 for heavier loads. A double-rod design is correct when you need anti-rotation stability, equal push/pull power, or a back rod to mount a sensor cam. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounting foot brackets directly. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For stroke lengths of 300mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock, pilot-operated check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SID80X60S is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAID80X60S. It shares the same 80mm bore, 60mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface, while adding an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways at 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. The fixed air port is G3/8, the rod is 25mm with an M20x1.5 thread, and it includes 36mm adjustable air cushions at each end. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
