About the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX500
The AirTAC SE63AX500 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding 500 mm stroke applications. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force, extending to 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that resists corrosion and mounts flush against machine frames. This clean profile simplifies the addition of bolt-on accessories without physical interference.
This specific SKU utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A), making it highly suitable for environments where moisture or mild corrosive elements would degrade a standard carbon steel rod. The cylinder relies on field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends to decelerate the payload smoothly near the stroke terminus. Because this model lacks the -S magnet suffix, it is not equipped for internal CMSE or DMSE position sensing out of the box.

Where the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX500 Is Used
Flow Wrapper End-Sealing
Drives the high-speed sealing jaw on continuous motion flow wrappers, utilizing the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa to cleanly crimp packaging film across a 500 mm wide web.
Pallet Transfer Pusher
Executes 500 mm index strokes to push heavy pallets laterally between adjacent roller conveyors, where the SUS420J2 stainless rod withstands occasional washdowns and airborne moisture.
Centrifuge Unloading
Actuates the discharge gate on industrial centrifuges, relying on the adjustable end-cushions to softly decelerate the 500 mm extension and prevent shock damage to the drum assembly.
Is the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX500 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 63 mm bore actuator, evaluate your force margins carefully. Stepping down to a 50 mm bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 982 N, which is viable only for lighter payloads. Conversely, moving up to an 80 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push capacity to 2513 N, providing a robust safety factor for high-friction loads. At 500 mm of stroke, the 20 mm diameter rod and M16x1.5 thread face significant bending moments under side loads; utilizing an external guide rail is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, the SE63AX500 serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, matching the 63 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and standardized mounting interface exactly. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is removed or a valve is centered; if the application must hold a load mechanically without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63AX500 FAQ
The SE63AX500 delivers a push force of 1559 N and a pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N. The maximum allowable operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, which yields a maximum push force of 318 kgf.
Yes, the SE63AX500 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. It shares the exact mounting footprint, 63 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, and PT3/8 porting of other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, allowing for a direct retrofit without machining new mounting holes.
