The AirTAC SAI63 Standard Cylinder SAI63BX40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 40mm 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 SAI63X40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for direct interchangeability with standard mounting interfaces. Delivering a robust 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore unit is tailored for short, rapid 40 mm strokes. The extruded aluminum barrel omits traditional tie-rods, presenting a clean, modern exterior that simplifies cleaning and reduces overall footprint.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (material code B) for superior corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed settings. Equipped with a -S magnet, it seamlessly integrates CMSE or DMSE electronic sensors directly into the dual-side barrel grooves. Fluid must be filtered to 40 um, and the adjustable air cushions at both ends ensure smooth deceleration even at cycling speeds up to 800 mm/s.

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.
Generates 1559 N of clamping force at just 0.5 MPa, perfect for holding heavy machined components securely during milling or drilling operations.
The 40 mm stroke rapidly pushes diverters or gates at up to 800 mm/s, redirecting heavy cartons on high-speed packaging and sorting conveyor lines.
Uses the robust 63 mm piston to forcefully eject pressed metal or plastic parts from tight molds immediately after the forming cycle completes.
If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore yields 982 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to an 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. Because this 40 mm stroke is quite short, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal, making it ideal for high-frequency clamping without requiring an external guide. To match this unit, select a 63 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, PT port (G3/8), and an -S magnet for position sensing. For operations that must maintain position during a complete air loss, note that a standard SAI relies on live pressure; a SAIL variant with an air-released lock or a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder is required to prevent drifting.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore generates a push force of 1559 N, and it reaches 2182 N at 0.7 MPa.
Yes, the SAI63X40-S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders without altering mounting hardware.
