The AirTAC Airtac SAI63 Standard Cylinder SAI63AX5 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 5mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAI63X5 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for ultra-short travel requirements. Delivering a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, this 63mm bore unit utilizes a 5mm stroke, making it a specialized made-to-order solution for compact clamping and ejection tasks.
Configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance, it features an extruded aluminum barrel with dual sensor grooves. Note that for position feedback, a magnet (-S) must be specified. The PT tapered port threads ensure a robust, sealed pneumatic connection.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Ideal for securing workpieces in tight machining fixtures where only a few millimeters of travel are needed to lock the component in place.
Provides a rapid, short-thrust push to eject small parts off a conveyor line without extending into adjacent machinery lanes.
Suitable for toggling mechanical valves or operating small mechanical latches where a full 25mm stroke would cause mechanical binding.
This 5mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order configuration designed for extremely tight spaces where a standard 25mm stroke would bottom out or require excessive clearance. If your application needs slightly more travel or standard availability, stepping down to the SAI50X25 (825 N pull at 0.5 MPa) or using a standard 25mm stroke on this 63mm bore is advised.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it will not hold a load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. For fail-safe load holding, consider the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or an external pilot-operated check valve. Ensure your ISO 15552 mounting interface matches your existing foot (LB) or flange (FA) accessories.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAI63X5 generates a push force of 1559 N and a pull force of 1402 N. It can reach a theoretical push force of 2182 N at 0.7 MPa.
Yes, the SAI63X5 is a genuine ISO 15552 profile cylinder, making its mounting dimensions fully interchangeable with other ISO 15552 standard cylinders. Ensure your port and rod thread match your existing setup.
