This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X610S, 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 SI40X610S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 610mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X610S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X610S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40 mm bore and 610 mm stroke. Delivering 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features an extruded aluminum barrel, a G1/4 port, and a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI40X610S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and output force.
The SAI replacement introduces an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock or valve variants absent from the original SI line, while Viton H seals expand the temperature range to 150 C.

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 packages across transfer lines with its 610 mm reach, relying on external guides to prevent rod bending during lateral extension.
Acts as an extended-range stopper on accumulation conveyors, with the G1/4 port ensuring reliable flow for rapid cycling.
To replace the SI40X610S, order the SAI40X610S and verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40 mm bore, 610 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and your specific mounting accessory. Because this is a long 610 mm stroke, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. For sizing alternatives, neighboring bores (32 mm or 50 mm) offer different force classes, but at 0.5 MPa this 40 mm bore provides 628 N push and 528 N pull. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end. For load holding, use an external rod lock, a pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X610S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X610S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40 mm bore, 610 mm stroke, output force, and G1/4 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly while upgrading the piston seal.
The 40 mm bore features a G1/4 air port and M12x1.25 rod thread. It delivers 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.
