This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID40X200, 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 SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID40X200 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 SAID40X200, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SID40X200 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, ensuring push and pull force are equal at 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. This discontinued model features a 40mm bore, 16mm rod, M12x1.25 thread, G1/4 port, and 27mm adjustable cushions. The direct replacement is the SAID40X200, reusing the same mounting interface, bore, and stroke. The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life.
Because the second rod can carry a sensor cam or drive two tools simultaneously while resisting rotation, this architecture is highly versatile. As this SKU lacks a -S magnet, it cannot accept magnetic switches. Note that air cushions only decelerate; for load holding without live air, use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.

The SAID40X200 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).
Drives two opposing machining heads with equal 528 N @0.5 MPa force on both strokes, ensuring perfectly synchronized material removal without rotational drift.
Uses the dual-rod architecture to push and pull a transfer diverter with identical 739 N @0.7 MPa force, maintaining smooth bidirectional routing on the line.
Leverages the rear extending rod to mechanically trigger external limit valves, providing rigid anti-rotation guidance for precision part placement.
To replace the discontinued SID40X200, install the direct replacement SAID40X200, which matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/4 port, and equal both-ways force. When sizing, verify that 528 N @0.5 MPa (or 739 N @0.7 MPa) meets your bidirectional load requirements; if more force is needed, step up to the 50mm bore, or drop to 32mm for lighter loads. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation stability, dual-tool driving, or a back rod for a sensor cam. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. Since this SKU has no -S magnet, sensing is impossible. For stroke lengths of 300mm or greater, carefully manage side-load alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SID40X200 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X200, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 40mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/4 port, and equal both-ways force. The SAI family also adds an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
The G1/4 port delivers equal push and pull force on both rod sides: 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. The 16mm rod uses an M12x1.25 thread, speed is 30-800 mm/s, and adjustable cushions are 27mm at each end.
