The AirTAC SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX160 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 160mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SE63AX160 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a 63 mm bore and a 160 mm stroke. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, compact body that resists corrosion and mounts flush against machine frames, simplifying spatial constraints in tight retrofits.
This specific SKU is built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for superior resistance to moisture and corrosive washdowns. The standard PT3/8 port and M16x1.5 rod thread pair with a 36 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends. Because this unit lacks the -S magnet code, it does not support AirTAC CMSE or DMSE position sensors out of the box.

Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B). Seals: TPU (blank) / FKM high-temp (H) / NBR (N). Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting: Basic, LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, CR, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2. Related SE-family variants: SED (double rod), SEJ (adjustable stroke), BSE (rod lock), BSED (double-rod rod lock).
Drives the capping heads on beverage rotary fillers, where the 1559 N push clamps caps securely and the SUS420J2 rod withstands daily washdowns.
Actuates stainless lane dividers on packaging conveyors, utilizing the smooth no-tie-rod profile to eliminate grease traps and bacterial buildup.
Strokes 160 mm to actuate chip-clearing wipers on lathes, relying on the field-adjustable 36 mm air cushion to soften end-of-stroke impacts at high speeds.
If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 982 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, stepping up to the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N of push. Remember that a plain SE cylinder cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. For position holding, consider the BSE rod lock variant or an external pilot-operated check valve. To match this exact ISO 15552 footprint, specify the 63 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and your required mounting accessory. Since the stroke is 160 mm, keep side loads in check and use an external guide to prevent rod-bearing bending on long unsupported extensions.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 1559 N of push and 1402 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 2182 N. The maximum push force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the SE63AX160 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, serving as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. Just match the 63 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting hardware.
