This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X65S, 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 SI40X65S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 65mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X65S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X65S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 65mm stroke. Delivering 628N push force at 0.5MPa, it features a G1/4 port and a built-in piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. AirTAC replaced this with the SAI40X65S, a direct sharing the same interface, force, and mounting.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants absent from the SI line.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40X65S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40X65S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×65 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 holding light machined components during drilling or milling, utilizing the 628N push force within compact machining centers.
Executes 65mm strokes to push small cartons off a main conveyor line, relying on the 32kg safe vertical lift margin for reliable transfer.
Deploys a pneumatic stop gate to regulate product flow on roller conveyors, benefiting from the adjustable 27mm air cushions at both ends.
To replace this SI40X65S, order the SAI40X65S and confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 65mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT), and your specific mounting accessory. The -S magnet equates to legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, which swap to current AirTAC switches on the SAI. If you need more force, the neighbouring 50mm bore offers 982N push at 0.5MPa; if less is required, the 32mm bore provides 402N. Remember, a standard cylinder drifts without live air—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, specify an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI40X65S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X65S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the exact same 40mm bore, 65mm stroke, output force, G1/4 port, and mounting fixtures.
The 40mm bore provides 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. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s. It uses a G1/4 port and a M12x1.25 rod thread.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X65S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
