The AirTAC Airtac SAIF Series Standard Cylinder with Valve SAIF63X250-08B is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with a Ø63mm bore, 250mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.
The AirTAC SAIF63X250-08B is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a built-in 4M310-08 5/2 solenoid valve, delivering a 1.40 Cv flow. Driven by a DC24V terminal-entry coil drawing 3.0 W, it responds in 0.05 s. Because the valve manifold mounts directly using O10 x O6.5 PU tubing, it eliminates remote plumbing and saves panel space for decentralized machine stations. The cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, but the practical operating range is 0.15-0.8 MPa due to the internal pilot valve limits.
This 63 mm bore generates 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The factory setting retracts the rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. The 5/2 valve holds position via pilot pressure, not a mechanical lock, so use a SAIL lock cylinder if you need true load holding.

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAIF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAIF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.

Sized within the valve's 0.15–0.8 MPa range. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

SAIF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For load-holding use a SAIL (lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock).
Ideal for large machines with multiple stations, using the built-in valve to switch locally from a single DC24V signal instead of running long air tubes back to a central manifold.
Provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa for securing workpieces during machining, with adjustable air cushions to decelerate the rod smoothly at stroke ends.
Drops into tight envelopes where installing a separate cylinder and remote valve is impractical, leveraging the ISO 15552 mounting interface for easy interchangeability.
Choose this 63 mm bore for medium-force tasks up to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 50 mm SAIF (982 N push) for lighter loads, or up to an 80 mm bore (2513 N push) if your application demands higher thrust. The integrated 4M310-08 valve with a 1/4" port offers a 25.0 mm2 effective area, making it ideal for high-speed cycling up to 4 cycles/sec without needing a separate remote valve bank. When replacing, verify the 250 mm stroke, 3/8" cylinder port, PT thread type, DC24V terminal coil, and standard carbon steel rod.
Since the stroke is 250 mm, ensure adequate guide support to prevent side-load wear on the piston rod. The unit operates without a magnet (-S omitted); add an -S suffix if you require CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors for position feedback.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder outputs 1559 N push and 1402 N pull force. The integrated 4M310-08 5/2 valve has a 25.0 mm2 effective area (Cv 1.40) and supports a maximum frequency of 4 cycles per second.
No, it switches itself using the built-in 4M310 valve driven by a DC24V terminal coil. By factory default, the piston rod retracts when the coil is energised, but you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the valve.
