The AirTAC Airtac SAI40 Standard Air Cylinder SAI40X450S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm 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 SAI40X450-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its 450 mm stroke provides the extended travel needed for material handling and automated sorting tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie-rods, ensuring a clean exterior that resists debris accumulation.
Equipped from the factory with a magnet (-S), this unit is fully compatible with CMSE and DMSE sensor switches that mount directly into the dual side grooves. The standard carbon steel piston rod offers high tensile strength for rigorous cycling, while the PT tapered port threads guarantee a secure, leak-free pneumatic connection.

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.
Extends 450 mm to push parcels of varied sizes from a main conveyor belt into routing chutes with reliable 628 N of push force.
Cycles long distances to feed empty pallets into automated wrapping lines, utilizing the integrated magnet for precise end-of-stroke positioning.
Actuates diverter gates on processing lines, where the carbon steel rod withstands repetitive impacts and the ISO 15552 footprint allows easy swaps.
Selecting this 40 mm bore is optimal when a 32 mm bore falls short—providing only 402 N at 0.5 MPa—and stepping up to a 50 mm bore (982 N at 0.5 MPa) would be excessive. At 450 mm of travel, the unsupported piston rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. To prevent premature rod-bearing wear, pair this cylinder with external linear guides or utilize a dedicated guided cylinder assembly.
This model serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement per ISO 15552 mounting dimensions. When ordering, verify the 450 mm stroke, G1/4 port, FA or LB mounting accessory, and the required -S magnet option. Note that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston near end-of-stroke; they do not lock the rod. If the application requires holding a load without live air pressure, specify the SAIL or BSAI locking variant.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder generates 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. If pressure is increased to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 879 N.
Yes. The SAI40X450-S is built to the ISO 15552 standard, making its mounting dimensions fully interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. Ensure your existing setup matches the G1/4 port and 450 mm stroke.
