The AirTAC Airtac SAID40 Double Rod Cylinder SAID40X425 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 425mm 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 SAID40X425 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 40mm bore and 425mm stroke. Because the twin rods occupy both sides of the piston, the annulus area is identical in extend and retract, yielding an equal 528N of force each way at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches.
A defining advantage of this through-rod design is the ability to attach a workpiece on the front end while using the rear rod for a position flag or cam. The carbon steel rods provide robust load guidance, and the unit uses adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly.

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.
Drives a shuttle mechanism where the exact 528N push and pull force at 0.5 MPa ensures consistent momentum transfer without the speed disparity of single-rod units.
The twin carbon steel rods guide the load against rotation, making it ideal for precision vertical lifting tasks that would bind in a single-rod cylinder.
Operates a primary workpiece on the front stroke while the rear rod end triggers a solid-state DMSE sensor flag for dual-station actuation.
Choose this 40mm bore model when your application requires equal push and pull forces and enhanced anti-rotation stability that a single-rod SAI cannot provide. If you need less force, the 32mm bore offers 345N both ways; if your load demands more, the 50mm bore provides 825N. Because the 425mm stroke is relatively long, the unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under side loads—always use an external guide to prevent rod-bearing wear.
This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and uses a PT tapered G1/4 port. It supports mounting accessories Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Note that a plain SAID does not hold its load when air is exhausted; the piston drifts, and the cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For position holding without live pressure, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL type.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the effective area is the same on both sides. It delivers an equal 528N of force in both extend and retract directions at 0.5 MPa, and 739N at 0.7 MPa.
Yes, the SAID40X425 is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. It uses standard mounting interfaces (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and a G1/4 port for drop-in replacement.
