This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI40X80SN, 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 SI40X80SN 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 SAI40X80SN, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI40X80SN is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an 80 mm stroke and 40 mm bore. It delivers 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G1/4 port. AirTAC replaced this unit with the SAI40X80SN, a direct sharing the same mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and port size.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the -N NBR seal handles -20 to +70 C (Viton H raises this to 150 C).

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAI40X80SN 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).
Secures mid-weight machined parts during milling or drilling, utilizing the 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa for rigid workholding.
Actuates 80 mm stroke diverting arms on packaging lines to route boxes, benefiting from the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Functions as a pneumatic stop gate in material handling zones, raising and lowering to control pallet flow safely.
To replace the SI40X80SN, order the SAI40X80SN. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, G1/4 port (PT/G/NPT), and mounting accessory. The SAI family adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants the SI lacked. For sizing, a 32 mm bore gives 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 50 mm bore gives 982 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI40X80SN is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI40X80SN. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 40 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, 628 N force, and G1/4 port for existing fixtures.
The 40 mm bore features a G1/4 air port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N push and 528 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879 N, and 1130 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI40X80SN replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
