This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40AX195, 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 SI40AX195 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 195mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40AX195, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40AX195 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 195mm stroke. It delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI40AX195, a direct sharing the exact interface, force, and mounting.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. This -A variant uses a SUS420J2 stainless rod, and lacks a magnet so it cannot take a sensor. For high heat, Viton H seals raise the limit to 150 C.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40AX195 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40AX195 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 light machinery requiring the SUS420J2 corrosion-resistant rod, pushing loads safely up to 377 N.
Provides reliable 195mm stroke gating and diverting on standard ISO 15552 fixture mounts.
To replace the SI40AX195, order the SAI40AX195. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 195mm stroke, G1/4 port, and SUS420J2 stainless rod. This non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a CS1-B or DS1-B switch. If you need more force than the 879 N at 0.7 MPa, step up to a 50mm bore; if less, a 32mm bore gives 563 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external pilot check valve or explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40AX195 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX195. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 195mm stroke, force, and G1/4 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 40mm bore cylinder features a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. It generates 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, 1130 N at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40AX195 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
