This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X122, 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 SI40 Standard Cylinder SI40X122 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 122mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X122, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X122 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 122mm stroke. It delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa. The direct replacement is the SAI40X122, matching the G1/4 port, M12x1.25 thread, and 27mm cushion. This non-magnetic SKU lacks a sensor groove switch and cannot take position sensing.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and longevity. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40X122 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 SAI40X122 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 628N push force at 0.5MPa to reliably eject small machined components from a fixture without damaging the surface.
The 122mm stroke actuates a diverter arm at 30-800mm/s to push lightweight cartons off a main conveyor belt line.
To replace this SI40X122, order the SAI40X122. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 122mm stroke, G1/4 port, and 27mm cushion. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor; order an -S version if sensing is needed. For sizing, a 32mm bore yields 402N push, while a 50mm bore provides 982N at 0.5MPa. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 122mm stroke, rod bending is negligible, but for strokes over 300mm, add a guide to prevent side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X122 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X122. It is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, retaining the same 40mm bore, 122mm stroke, 628N force, G1/4 port, and mounting accessories.
The SI40X122 features a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. It generates 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 879N push at 0.7MPa, 1130N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 128kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X122 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
