This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X195S, 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 SI40X195S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 195mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X195S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X195S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 195mm stroke. Delivering 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port, it is replaced by the SAI40X195S. This direct upgrade shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and accessories, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S suffix denotes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked.

The SAI40X195S 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).
Pushes lightweight cartons off a sorting line using 628 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa with responsive 30-800 mm/s cycling.
Secures machined components during light milling, where the 528 N pull force at 0.5 MPa provides stable holding.
To replace the SI40X195S, order the SAI40X195S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 195mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT thread), and your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.). The -S magnet is present for CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI uses current AirTAC switches. Sizing both ways: a 32mm bore yields 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 50mm bore yields 982 N. A plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For held loads use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 195mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending risks are low, but ensure guide alignment.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X195S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X195S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 195mm stroke, output force, G1/4 port and mounting accessories, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 40mm bore cylinder has a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. 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 SAI40X195S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
