This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X200SLB, 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 SI40X200SLB is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 200mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X200SLB, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X200SLB is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 200mm stroke, delivering 628N push force at 0.5MPa via a G1/4 port. AirTAC replaced it with the SAI40X200SLB direct upgrade. This current-production model shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, LB foot bracket, M12x1.25 rod thread and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The SAI upgrade features a redesigned piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF and BSAI lock variants absent from the legacy line. Your -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, while Viton H seals raise heat resistance to 150C.

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40X200SLB 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 medium-weight cartons on a packaging line using the 628N thrust and 200mm travel distance.
Aligns pallets or totes at a workstation via the LB foot mount, absorbing side loads with external guides.
Secures workpieces during machining, using the -S magnet and CS1-B sensors to confirm clamp position.
To replace the SI40X200SLB, order the SAI40X200SLB. Verify the ISO 15552 interface, 40mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/4 port, LB foot mounting, and the -S magnet. If you need more force, the 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa; if less is required, the 32mm bore provides 402N. For load holding, note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss as the cushion only decelerates. Use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. At 200mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but always guide the rod to prevent bending. The SAIF variant offers a built-in valve if needed.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X200SLB is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X200SLB. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/4 port, and LB foot mount, fitting existing fixtures without modification.
The 40mm bore uses a G1/4 port. At 0.5MPa it provides 628N push and 528N pull force. At 0.7MPa push is 879N, and at 0.9MPa push is 1130N. The theoretical maximum force is 128kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X200SLB replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
