The AirTAC Airtac SAI63 Standard Cylinder SAI63BX185S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 185mm 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 SAI63X185-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 63mm bore and a 185mm stroke. Because 185mm is outside the standard stroke increments, it is manufactured as a non-standard, made-to-order stroke length. It delivers a robust 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for medium-duty industrial handling.
This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance in humid or chemically active settings. The integrated magnet (-S) allows direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE sensor switches along the dual grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel, providing precise end-of-stroke detection.

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 environments, making this 1559 N cylinder ideal for food processing or packaging lines where moisture is present.
A 185mm stroke provides the exact reach needed to push standard pallets onto secondary conveyor tracks without overshooting.
Delivers reliable 0.5 MPa thrust to knock finished molded parts out of heavy-duty dies, using the magnet to confirm retraction.
When sizing this actuator, consider stepping down to a 50mm bore if your application only requires 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, which saves space and air consumption. Conversely, if your load demands more thrust, an 80mm bore provides 2513 N at the same pressure. Since this model has a 185mm stroke, it is below the 300mm threshold where heavy side-load bending typically becomes a major concern, but keeping the load axially aligned remains critical for rod-bearing longevity.
As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it provides a direct mounting interface replacement for other ISO 15552 actuators with a 63mm bore, G3/8 PT port, and 185mm stroke. Remember that a standard SAI cylinder relies on live air pressure to hold its load; the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a locking brake. If your system loses pressure, the load will drift.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N.
Yes, the SAI series is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can drop it in as a replacement for any 63mm bore ISO 15552 cylinder with a 185mm stroke, matching the G3/8 port and mounting footprint.
