This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40AX105S, 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 SI40 Standard Cylinder SI40AX105S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 105mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40AX105S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40AX105S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 105mm stroke. Featuring a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and a built-in magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches, it delivers 628N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX105S, retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force and port size.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. For applications needing load holding, the SAI family adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

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 securing workpieces on machining lines where the SUS420J2 rod resists corrosion and the 628N force provides firm, stable holding.
Deploys a 105mm stroke to push cartons on packaging conveyors, with the built-in magnet confirming position via CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
Handles vertical lifting of light material gates up to 32kg, benefiting from the smooth adjustable air cushions at both stroke ends.
To replace the SI40AX105S, order the SAI40AX105S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 40mm bore, 105mm stroke, G1/4 port, M12x1.25 rod thread and 27mm cushions. The -S magnet and -A SUS420J2 stainless rod carry over directly. If you need more force, the 50mm bore offers 982N push at 0.5MPa; if less is required, the 32mm bore provides 402N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. The SAIF variant integrates a 4M valve for bores 32-100.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40AX105S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX105S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 105mm stroke, force, G1/4 port and accessories, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The G1/4 port bore delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 879N push at 0.7MPa, 1130N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 128kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0MPa, with a speed range of 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40AX105S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
