This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI100X40SCA, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.

The AirTAC Airtac SI100 Standard Cylinder SI100X40SCA is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 40mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI100X40SCA, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI100X40SCA is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 40mm stroke. It delivers 3927N of push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/2 port. The direct replacement is the SAI100X40SCA, retaining the exact same CA clevis mounting interface, output force, and dimensions.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For load holding, note that a standard cylinder drifts without live air; the cushion only decelerates. The SAI family adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants. Your -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

The SAI100X40SCA produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Applies 3927N of thrust at 0.5MPa for seating bearings, stamping components, or forming light gauge materials in automated machinery.
Uses the CA clevis mount to pivot a heavy lane deflector, smoothly routing high-weight pallets on a packaging line with a short 40mm stroke.
To replace the SI100X40SCA, order the SAI100X40SCA. Verify your ISO 15552 CA clevis mounting, 100mm bore, 40mm stroke, G1/2 port, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. If sizing up or down, neighbouring bores are 80mm and 125mm. At 0.5MPa, this 100mm bore yields 3927N push and 3681N pull force. Because the stroke is 40mm, side-load risks are minimal, but always ensure rigid alignment. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss; for secure holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. Rod material options include carbon steel, SUS420J2, or SUS304.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI100X40SCA is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI100X40SCA. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 100mm bore, 40mm stroke, G1/2 port, CA clevis mount, and output force.
The bore is 100mm with a G1/2 air port. The thrust is 3927N push and 3681N pull at 0.5MPa, 5497N push at 0.7MPa, 7068N push at 0.9MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 801kgf at 1.0MPa. The piston rod is 25mm with an M20x1.5 thread.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI100X40SCA replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
