The AirTAC SAI40 Standard Air Cylinder SAI40AX275 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 275mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI40X275 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. Its 275 mm stroke provides the extended travel needed for mid-range positioning tasks. As a tie-rod-less extruded aluminum barrel design, it offers a clean profile while maintaining strict dimensional interchangeability with other ISO 15552 standard cylinders.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. It utilizes PT tapered port threads, and because it lacks the -S magnet option, it operates without integrated sensor grooves for position detection.

Diverts medium-weight cartons on a packaging line using the 879 N push force and 275 mm travel to actuate routing arms.
Extends to secure workpieces in light machining fixtures, utilizing the SUS420J2 stainless rod to resist shop-floor moisture.
Functions as an extendable stop gate on roller conveyors, providing reliable physical resistance to halt incoming pallets.
Select this 40 mm bore when an application requires more power than a 32 mm bore (which provides 563 N at 0.7 MPa) but has spatial constraints that prevent stepping up to a 50 mm bore (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). The 275 mm stroke offers ample extension for packaging and material handling. Because the stroke exceeds 300 mm is approached, designers must evaluate side-load conditions; long unsupported rods are susceptible to bending, so utilizing an external guide rail or a guided cylinder module is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
For direct ISO 15552 replacements, verify the 40 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, G1/4 port size, and mounting accessory type (such as FA flange or LB foot). Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder relies on continuous air pressure to move; if pressure is lost, the piston will drift. To hold a load securely without live pressure, specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI clamp-lock version.
Quick checklist
At a standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder generates 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force.
No, the standard SAI cylinder does not hold position without air pressure and will drift. To maintain a vertical load during pressure loss, use the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or an external rod lock.
