This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40BX190S, 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 SI40BX190S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 190mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40BX190S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40BX190S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore, 190mm stroke, G1/4 port and a SUS304 stainless steel rod. Delivering 628N push force at 0.5MPa, it is replaced by the SAI40BX190S. This direct upgrade shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke and output force.
The SAI successor features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The built-in magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family adds SAIL lock, SAIF valve and BSAI clamp variants.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40BX190S 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 | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40BX190S 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).
Secures light aluminum components during machining, relying on the 528N pull force and adjustable cushions.
To replace the SI40BX190S, order the SAI40BX190S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, the 40mm bore, 190mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread), the SUS304 stainless rod, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, a 50mm bore offers 982N push at 0.5MPa, while a 32mm bore yields 402N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40BX190S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40BX190S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 190mm stroke, G1/4 port, and force ratings, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
It features a G1/4 port. The force ratings are 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 879N push at 0.7MPa, 1130N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 128kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40BX190S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
