This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI125X40CA, 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 SI125 Standard Cylinder SI125X40CA is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 40mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI125X40CA, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI125X40CA is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125 mm bore and 40 mm stroke, delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a CA clevis mount and a G1/2 port. Because this legacy SI unit is end-of-life, you should order the SAI125X40CA direct replacement.
The SAI125X40CA shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and accessories, fitting existing fixtures perfectly. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept a CS1-B or DS1-B sensor.

| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
The SAI125X40CA 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).
Drives heavy-duty stamping presses requiring 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa with robust CA clevis mounting.
Actuates large welding fixtures, utilizing the 125 mm bore and G1/2 port for high-throughput lines.
To replace the SI125X40CA, order the SAI125X40CA and confirm the ISO 15552 CA clevis mounting, 125 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, and G1/2 port. This SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot support position sensing; if sensing is needed, select an SAI variant with a magnet. If sizing down, the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; sizing up to 160 mm provides 10053 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. The SAI family also adds the SAIF self-valve option.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI125X40CA is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI125X40CA, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 125 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, force, G1/2 port and CA clevis mount.
The 125 mm bore uses a G1/2 port. It delivers 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa, 11045 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI125X40CA replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
