This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40BX750S, 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 SI40BX750S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 750mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40BX750S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40BX750S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40 mm bore, 750 mm stroke, and a SUS304 stainless steel rod. It delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. The direct replacement is the SAI40BX750S, which shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and porting.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI accepts current AirTAC switches. A Viton H seal option raises the operating temperature to 0-150 C.

The SAI40BX750S 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 750 mm sorting gates on packaging lines, utilizing the SUS304 stainless rod for corrosion resistance in washdown environments.
Shifts workpiece carriers between machining stations, using the G1/4 port and ISO 15552 mounts for seamless fixture integration.
To replace the SI40BX750S, order the SAI40BX750S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC), the G1/4 port, the M12x1.25 rod thread, and the -S magnet for switch sensing. If you need more force, the neighbouring 50 mm bore provides 982 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less force is acceptable, the 32 mm bore offers 402 N. Because the stroke is 750 mm, add an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants for secure holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40BX750S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40BX750S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 40 mm bore, 750 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting interface to fit existing fixtures directly.
This double-acting cylinder features a G1/4 air port and an 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 push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40BX750S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
