The AirTAC SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX165S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 165mm 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 SE63AX165S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensions, delivering a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. It features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for corrosion resistance, making it highly suitable for washdown or humid environments. The square extruded aluminum barrel eliminates external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (option S), this unit supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic position sensors along the three integrated sensor grooves. The field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, ensuring smooth stops even at the maximum operating speed of 30-800 mm/s.

Routes PET bottles on a washdown conveyor using the 165 mm stroke, leveraging the 1559 N push force and SUS420J2 stainless rod to withstand rigorous cleaning cycles.
Folds corrugated cardboard flaps prior to sealing, utilizing the 36 mm cushion length to bring the 63 mm piston to a soft stop without crushing the packaging.
Opens and closes heavy machine tool doors, relying on the DMSE electronic sensors to confirm full closure before the spindle ramps up to operating speed.
Selecting this 63 mm bore makes sense when your application requires the 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa but cannot justify the larger 80 mm bore (2513 N push). Conversely, if your load is lighter, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 982 N of push force. Because this is a standard 165 mm stroke, it drops directly into existing ISO 15552 mounting hardware using the PT3/8 port and M16x1.5 rod thread.
Note that a plain SE cylinder relies on continuous air pressure to hold a load; if air is lost or the valve centers, the piston will drift. For applications requiring true position holding without live pressure, consider the BSE rod-lock variant. Additionally, the SUS420J2 rod excels in corrosive settings but does not increase the core thrust output beyond the standard steel rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm 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, with a maximum push capacity of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE63AX165S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can drop it into existing mounting hardware and use the PT3/8 ports without modifying the machine frame, provided you use the appropriate CMSE or DMSE sensors for position feedback.
