This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI32X40H, 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 SI32 Standard Air Cylinder SI32X40H is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 40mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI32X40H, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI32X40H is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 40 mm stroke. Built for high-temperature duty with a Viton H seal (0 to 150 C), it delivers 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI32X40H, a direct replacement retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and accessories.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept a position sensor; legacy SI sensors were CS1-B/DS1-B. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF and BSAI lock/valve variants absent in the original SI line.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAI32X40H 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).
Ideal for ejecting small molded components near heated zones, utilizing the Viton H seal to withstand ambient temperatures up to 150 C while providing 402 N of push force.
Fits into tight machinery profiles to actuate lightweight routing flaps or diverters, offering a short 40 mm stroke and robust ISO 15552 mounting stability.
To replace the discontinued SI32X40H, order the SAI32X40H. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface matches your fixture, along with the 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, G1/8 port (PT/G/NPT thread options) and Viton H high-temperature seal. If you need position sensing, select an SAI model with the -S magnet option, as this no-S SKU cannot take a switch. For higher force needs, neighboring bores like the 40 mm offer 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold load without live air; for load holding on pressure loss, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. With a 40 mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending stresses are minimal, but always guide the load to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI32X40H is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI32X40H. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, force, G1/8 port and Viton H seal, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a G1/8 air port and M10x1.25 rod thread. It delivers 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, 724 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI32X40H replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
