This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X124S, 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 SI40X124S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 124mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X124S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X124S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 124mm stroke, delivering 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa. It is directly replaced by the SAI40X124S, a direct upgrade retaining the same G1/4 port, M12x1.25 rod thread, and mounting interface. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants the SI lacked.
This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40X124S 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 SAI40X124S 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).
Ideal for pushing light to medium cartons on a packaging line, utilizing the 124mm stroke and 628N push force to actuate routing gates cleanly.
Provides reliable holding force for machining or assembly fixtures, where the 40mm bore delivers precise clamping without deforming components.
Suitable for lifting or stopping totes up to 32kg in material handling setups, with the built-in magnet confirming position via sensors.
To replace the SI40X124S, order the SAI40X124S. It drops into existing fixtures per ISO 15552 dimensions, matching the 40mm bore, 124mm stroke, G1/4 port, and M12x1.25 rod thread. Retain your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.) and confirm the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches. For sizing, this 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 32mm bore gives 402N, while a 50mm bore gives 982N. Since the stroke is 124mm, guide external rods to prevent side-load bending. A plain SAI does not hold load without live air; for locking needs, consider the SAIL or BSAI variants, or a pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X124S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X124S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 124mm stroke, and G1/4 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly while offering an upgraded piston seal.
The 40mm bore features a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. It delivers 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. Operating speed is 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X124S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
