The AirTAC Airtac SAI40 Standard Air Cylinder SAI40X140S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 140mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAI40X140-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver reliable linear motion. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. The 140 mm stroke is well-suited for mid-range actuation tasks requiring precise positioning. As a genuine AirTAC component, it ensures consistent performance in demanding environments.
This variant includes a magnetic piston (-S) for seamless integration with CMSE or DMSE reed switches. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting. The standard carbon steel piston rod provides robust strength, while adjustable air cushions at both ends protect the end caps from impact damage during high-speed operations.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Ideal for securing medium-sized workpieces during machining, utilizing its 628 N push force to hold parts firmly against locators.
Provides reliable actuation for diverting mechanisms on packaging lines, where the 140 mm stroke pushes cartons onto auxiliary tracks.
Actuates safety gates and machine guarding doors, using the magnetic piston to trigger CMSE sensors and confirm door status.
Selecting this 40 mm bore cylinder is optimal when an application requires approximately 600 N of force at 0.5 MPa. If your project demands less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N; conversely, upgrading to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. The 140 mm stroke offers ample travel without the severe side-load risks associated with exceptionally long rods, though external guides are always recommended for heavy off-center loads.
Because it adheres strictly to ISO 15552 dimensional standards, this unit serves as a direct drop-in replacement for comparable profile cylinders. It features a PT tapered port thread, a G1/4 air connection, and an M12x1.25 rod thread. Note that standard double-acting cylinders drift if air pressure is lost; for applications requiring position holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL locking variant or an external pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 628 N and a pull force of 528 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
Yes, the SAI40X140-S is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. You can swap it into existing mounts using standard FA flanges or LB foot brackets without modifying the machinery.
