This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40AX80S, 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 SI40AX80S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 80mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40AX80S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40AX80S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40 mm bore and 80 mm stroke. It delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX80S, matching the interface, force, and mounting.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. The -A rod is SUS420J2 stainless steel, and the -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40AX80S 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 SAI40AX80S 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).
Uses the 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa to reliably eject small machined components from a fixture without damaging the surface.
The 80 mm stroke actuates a diverting arm on a packaging line, moving light cartons at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Raises a 32 kg payload stop gate on a gravity conveyor, leveraging the SUS420J2 stainless rod for humid environments.
To replace this SI40AX80S, order the SAI40AX80S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and your specific mounting accessory. The SUS420J2 stainless rod (-A) and magnet (-S) carry over directly. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628 N; sizing down, a 32 mm bore yields 402 N, while sizing up, a 50 mm bore yields 982 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI40AX80S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX80S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 40 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, 628 N force, G1/4 port, and mounting interface.
This double-acting cylinder features a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. It delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, 1130 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40AX80S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
