This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B04-SAID63X900S, 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-SID63X900S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 900mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B04-SAID63X900S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B04-SID63X900S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B04- prefix designates it as a construction-machinery dedicated variant of the base SID63X900S, sharing identical mechanical specifications. Because a rod exits both ends on a single piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal (1402 N @0.5 MPa). This model is discontinued and superseded by the direct replacement SAID63X900S, which retains the G3/8 port, M16x1.5 thread, and 30 mm cushions.
The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. The built-in magnet (-S) supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, while the SAI family uses current switches. Note that air cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for load holding.

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 dual-tool mechanisms on heavy equipment with equal push and pull force, leveraging the anti-rotation stability of the double-rod design for precise machinery control.
Synchronizes two opposing attachments from a single piston, using the G3/8 port and robust ISO 15552 mounting to withstand harsh construction environments.
Provides stable linear movement for heavy-duty boom positioning where equal force both ways is critical, utilizing the 900 mm stroke for extended reach operations.
To replace the discontinued B04-SID63X900S, select the SAID63X900S, which offers a direct ISO 15552 interface match without changing your mounting hardware. When sizing both ways, verify the equal both ways force (1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, 2523 N @0.9 MPa) meets your load, or step to neighbouring bores (80mm or 50mm) if a higher or lower capacity is required. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts directly. Ensure the -S magnet is specified if sensor feedback is needed. Because the 900 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, incorporate external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B04-SID63X900S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID63X900S. The B04- prefix simply marks it as the construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SID63X900S; mechanically, it is identical. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting.
Because it is 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. The air port size is G3/8. The cylinder operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
