The AirTAC Airtac SAI63 Standard Cylinder SAI63BX165S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 165mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI63X165-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 165 mm stroke hits a sweet spot for mid-length automation cycles, while the integrated magnet enables direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE sensor switches along the extruded aluminum barrel grooves.
Built specifically for harsher environments, this variant features a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (material code B) for superior corrosion resistance. The standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures it functions as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders without altering your existing machine footprint.

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.
The SUS304 rod resists washdown chemicals, making it ideal for clamping parts in food and beverage processing lines.
Provides 1559 N of force at 0.5 MPa to reliably actuate heavy diverter gates on packaging conveyors.
Uses its 165 mm stroke to press bearings or bushings into housings on automated assembly machinery.
Selecting this 63 mm bore over the smaller 50 mm bore increases your 0.5 MPa thrust from 982 N to 1559 N, providing a 59 percent boost in capacity. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore reduces air consumption and physical footprint. This 165 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke limit for this bore.
Because this cylinder uses adjustable air cushions at both ends rather than a physical brake, it cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost. For vertical loads that require fail-safe positioning, consider the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or an external pilot-operated check valve. To match your existing setup, specify the PT port thread, G3/8 air connections, M16x1.5 rod thread, and the appropriate mounting accessory like an FA flange or TC trunnion.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, the theoretical push force is 318 kgf.
Yes, the SAI63X165-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 mounting interface standards. You can use it as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders using matching FA flanges or TC trunnions.
