This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI32X40S, 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 SI32X40S 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 SAI32X40S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI32X40S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 40 mm stroke. Delivering 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G1/8 port, it is replaced by the SAI32X40S. This direct upgrade shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and mounting accessories.
The SAI32X40S features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the legacy line.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI32X40S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAI32X40S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×40 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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).
Provides reliable 32 mm bore clamping force for small jigs and fixtures where space is restricted but ISO 15552 mounting is required.
Handles short-stroke diverting or sorting tasks on conveyor lines, utilizing the 30-800 mm/s speed range and integrated magnet.
To replace the SI32X40S, order the SAI32X40S keeping the identical 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, M10x1.25 rod thread, G1/8 port, and -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. The SAI uses current AirTAC switches. If you need more force, neighboring bores like 40 mm offer 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. For load holding, note a plain cylinder drifts without live air; the cushion only decelerates. Use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant for secure holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI32X40S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI32X40S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, G1/8 port, output force, and mounting interface.
The 32 mm bore uses a G1/8 port. It generates 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI32X40S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
