This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X80SFTC, 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 SI40X80SFTC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 80mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI40X80SFTC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X80SFTC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an 80 mm stroke. Delivering 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it uses a G1/4 port and an M12x1.25 rod thread. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI40X80SFTC, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and FTC trunnion accessory.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line. This -S SKU includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI40X80SFTC 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 SAI40X80SFTC 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).
Actuates diverter arms on packaging lines, utilizing the 628 N push force to redirect cartons at 30-800 mm/s.
Controls material flow gates in distribution hubs, fitting seamlessly into existing ISO 15552 FTC trunnion mounts.
To replace the SI40X80SFTC, order the SAI40X80SFTC. Verify your ISO 15552 FTC trunnion mount, 40 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT), and the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches. If you need more force, the neighbouring 50 mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less is acceptable, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates near stroke end—so use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X80SFTC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X80SFTC. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, force, and G1/4 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a G1/4 port and provides 628 N push / 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X80SFTC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
