The AirTAC Airtac SAID40 Double Rod Cylinder SAID40X225S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm 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 SAID40X225-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 40mm bore and 225mm stroke. Because a carbon steel rod extends from both end covers, the annulus area is identical on both sides, yielding an equal 528N of thrust and pull force at 0.5 MPa in either direction. The integrated -S magnet pairs directly with CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors mounted in the dual-side barrel grooves.
This through-rod architecture provides superior anti-rotation guidance compared to a single-rod SAI, allowing you to mount the primary workpiece on one end and a secondary cam, position flag, or mechanism on the rear rod. It uses adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly, but note it will not hold a load if air pressure is lost.

Drives a transfer carriage back and forth with identical 528N force and speed in both directions, ensuring consistent cycle times without tuning separate pressure regulators.
Mounts the primary tool on the front rod while using the rear extension to trip a DMSE solid-state sensor, providing precise end-of-stroke confirmation without external probes.
Utilizes the twin-rod guidance to prevent mechanical rotation during vertical web handling, keeping the load perfectly aligned without needing an external linear bearing.
Choose this 40mm bore when an application demands symmetric push/pull dynamics and dual-side guidance, stepping up from the 32mm bore (345N both ways) or down from the 50mm bore (825N both ways). The double-rod design is essential for preventing mechanical twist on long-stroke slides where a single rod would allow rotational play. It features a PT tapered G1/4 port and accepts the reduced SAID mounting accessory set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets used on single-rod SAI models.
Because the stroke is 225mm, you must account for the extended overall length; the rear rod protrudes continuously and requires clear space to avoid collision. Furthermore, for strokes of 300mm or more, the unsupported load increases bending stress on the rod bearings, so an external guide rail is recommended to prevent premature wear.
Quick checklist
Because the double-rod design subtracts the rod area from both sides of the piston, the force is equal in both directions. It provides 528N at 0.5 MPa, 739N at 0.7 MPa, and 950N at 0.9 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 profile cylinder standards. However, it only uses the reduced SAID mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. It does not accept FB, CA, CB, or CR brackets.
