This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B04-SAID63X175, 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 B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID63X175 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 175mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B04-SAID63X175, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The B04-SID63X175 is an AirTAC construction-machinery dedicated double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder. The B04- prefix denotes a heavy-equipment industry variant that is mechanically identical to the base SID63X175. A rod exits both ends on one piston, meaning both faces use the rod-side area, so push and pull force are equal both ways at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. It features a 63mm bore, 175mm stroke, G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and 30mm adjustable cushions. This SID model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID63X175, which retains the same interface, force, and mounting.
The double-rod design provides anti-rotation stability and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam or drive two tools simultaneously, while ISO 15552 mounting (Basic, FA, LB, TC) enables direct reuse of existing brackets. The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. Note this SKU lacks a -S magnet and cannot take a sensor. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

The B04-SAID63X175 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 synchronized dual-tool mechanisms on heavy equipment where equal both-ways force and anti-rotation stability are critical for precise positioning.
Uses the back rod to carry a sensor cam or secondary load, maintaining balanced push and pull force through the 175mm stroke in construction cabs.
Indexes heavy machinery components using the G3/8 port and 30mm adjustable cushions to decelerate loads smoothly at both stroke ends.
To replace the discontinued B04-SID63X175, specify the direct replacement SAID63X175, keeping the 63mm bore, 175mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal-both-ways force. Because force is equal in both directions, size it by checking that 1402 N @0.5 MPa meets your load in both extend and retract. If you need more force, step up to the 80mm bore (2268 N @0.5 MPa); if less, step down to the 50mm bore (825 N @0.5 MPa). A double-rod cylinder is right when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools from one piston. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot accept a sensor. For stroke lengths of 300mm or greater, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B04-SID63X175 is discontinued. The B04- prefix marks it as a construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID63X175, mechanically identical in spec. The direct replacement is the SAID63X175, which matches the ISO 15552 interface, 63mm bore, 175mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal both-ways force.
As a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
