This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B04-SAID40X25, 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 B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID40X25 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 25mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B04-SAID40X25, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B04-SID40X25 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 (528 N at 0.5 MPa). The B04- prefix marks this as the construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID40X25, mechanically identical to it. This SKU is discontinued and has no -S magnet, so it cannot take a magnetic switch. The direct replacement is the SAID40X25, sharing the same 40 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and M12x1.25 rod thread.
Because the rod-side area drives both faces, force is equal both ways (739 N at 0.7 MPa, 950 N at 0.9 MPa). The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The double-rod design prevents rod rotation and lets the back rod carry a sensor cam or drive a second tool.

The B04-SAID40X25 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).
Equal push/pull force drives a synchronized linkage on heavy equipment without rod rotation.
The back rod operates a secondary gate mechanism while the front rod shifts the main load.
Double-rod symmetry ejects material from a crusher hopper with stable, equal force.
To replace the B04-SID40X25, use the SAID40X25 direct: same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, and G1/4 port. Size both ways by checking neighbor bores (32 mm or 50 mm) while keeping the equal-both-ways force requirement. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation or must drive two tools. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. Since this SKU lacks the -S magnet, add external sensors if needed. For stroke >=300 mm, verify side-load limits. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B04-SID40X25 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X25. The B04- prefix denotes the construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID40X25, so the SAID40X25 matches its 40 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface perfectly.
Force is equal both ways: 528 N at 0.5 MPa, 739 N at 0.7 MPa, and 950 N at 0.9 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s. It uses a G1/4 air port, M12x1.25 rod thread, and 27 mm adjustable air cushions at each end.
