This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40AX95, 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 SI40AX95 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 95mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40AX95, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40AX95 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 95mm stroke, delivering 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a Ø16 mm rod, M12x1.25 thread, and a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX95, which matches the original bore, stroke, output force, and mounting interface.
This SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The SI40AX95 uses an SUS420J2 stainless rod (-A) for corrosion resistance, but lacks a magnet, meaning it cannot accept a position switch. For load holding, note that the air cushion only decelerates; you need a pilot check valve or the SAIL lock variant.

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40AX95 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).
Drives mid-force clamping arms on machining fixtures, utilizing the 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa to secure aluminum housings during milling.
Powers a 95mm stroke diverter arm on a packaging line, pushing cartons to adjacent lanes without requiring position sensing.
Actuates lightweight gravity roller gates, where the SUS420J2 stainless rod provides necessary corrosion resistance in humid warehouse environments.
To replace the discontinued SI40AX95, order the SAI40AX95. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 95mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT), and your specific mounting accessory. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; order a magnet-equipped SAI if sensing is needed. Sizing both ways: a 32mm bore yields 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 50mm bore yields 982 N. The 40mm bore provides 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa. For suspended loads, a plain cylinder drifts without live air; use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI variants to hold position securely.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40AX95 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40AX95. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 40mm bore, 95mm stroke, 628 N force, G1/4 port, and mounting fixtures.
The bore is 40mm with a G1/4 port. Force output is 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 max of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40AX95 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
