About the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X40FA
The AirTAC SAI50X40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50mm bore and a 40mm stroke. It delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for short, high-impact clamping and ejecting tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders.
This specific configuration includes a standard carbon steel piston rod and a PT (tapered) port thread. It is prepared with an FA flange mounting accessory for secure front-plate attachment. Because the -S magnet option is not specified, this unit does not have built-in sensor grooves for CMSE or DMSE switches.

Where the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X40FA Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Ideal for securing workpieces during machining, utilizing the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa to hold components firmly in place.
Product Ejection
Provides rapid, short-distance ejection of finished parts from a conveyor line using its 40mm stroke and 30-800 mm/s speed capability.
Gate Diverter
Actuates short diverter gates or sorting arms in packaging systems where a compact, front-flange mounted actuator is required.
Is the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X40FA the Right Cylinder?
If your application requires slightly less force, stepping down to a 40mm bore yields 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 63mm bore provides 1559 N for heavier loads. The 40mm stroke is highly rigid and minimizes rod-bearing bending, making it excellent for short, direct presses without needing external guides.
This SAI50X40 setup uses an FA front-flange mount and a PT port. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position; if pressure drops, the piston will drift. For applications that must hold a load mechanically without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50X40FA FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAI50X40 generates a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
Yes, the SAI50X40 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can use it as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders with a 50mm bore and 40mm stroke, provided your mounting interface matches the FA flange.
