The AirTAC Airtac SAI63 Standard Cylinder SAI63BX5S 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 interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAI63X5-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for ultra-short stroke applications. It delivers a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, providing substantial thrust within a highly compact footprint. This specific configuration includes a -S magnet for direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE sensor switches along the dual grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel.
Configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B), this model is highly suitable for environments where moisture or minor corrosion is a concern. The PT tapered port threads ensure a robust, leak-free pneumatic connection. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders.

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.
Provides 1559N of clamping force at 0.5MPa for securing heavy metal workpieces during machining operations.
Ideal for quickly pushing finished parts off a conveyor line without extending far into the machinery workspace.
Fits into tight machine cells to actuate gates or stops with high thrust in a minimal 5mm travel distance.
Selecting this 63mm bore over the 50mm option upgrades your thrust from 982 N to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an 80mm bore would yield 2513 N. The 5mm stroke is optimal for high-force clamping or short ejection tasks where a longer rod would waste space and increase susceptibility to side-load damage.
Because the standard SAI cylinder is double-acting, it relies on continuous air pressure to hold position; if air is lost, the piston will drift. For applications requiring dead-stop holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI clamp-lock model. To swap this cylinder into an existing ISO 15552 setup, match the 63mm bore, 5mm stroke, G3/8 PT port, and preferred mounting accessory like an FA flange.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 63mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 1559 N and a pull force of 1402 N.
Yes, the SAI series is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can use it as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders by matching the bore, stroke, and mounting interface.
