About the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63BX160
The AirTAC SE63BX160 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 63 mm bore and 160 mm stroke. It delivers a robust 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa and utilizes a PT3/8 port. Engineered with a square extruded aluminum barrel completely free of external tie rods, this design provides a compact, corrosion-resistant footprint that mounts flush against machine frames, simplifying installation in tight spaces.
This specific SKU is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior resistance in corrosive or washdown environments. The cylinder incorporates field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends, allowing technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw to eliminate hard mechanical impacts. Note that this configuration ships without a sensor magnet, so it cannot host CMSE or DMSE electronic switches for position feedback without modification.

Where the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63BX160 Is Used
Flow Wrapper Cutting Head
Drives the rotary knife assembly on a food packaging line, utilizing the 1559 N push force to slice film cleanly while the SUS304 rod withstands daily washdowns.
Pallet Diverter Gate
Actuates a routing gate on a 63 mm bore conveyor system, relying on the adjustable pneumatic cushion to softly arrest the 160 mm stroke without shocking the payload.
Bottle Rinser Station
Lifts inverted beverage bottles over a rinsing jet, where the square no-tie-rod profile prevents water and chemical pooling, and the stainless rod resists corrosion.
Is the Airtac SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63BX160 the Right Cylinder?
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore generates 1559 N of thrust. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 982 N of push, while moving up to the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N for heavier payloads. Because this is a standard ISO 15552 mounting interface, it serves as a direct, direct dimensional replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders, sharing identical mounting hardware and hole patterns. If a machine must hold a load vertically without continuous air pressure, note that this base SE model lacks a rod lock; you would need to specify the BSE variant or an external pilot-operated check valve to prevent drift. The 160 mm stroke is well within standard limits, though the 20 mm rod and M16x1.5 thread handle moderate side loads effectively.
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 SE63BX160 FAQ
The SE63BX160 has a 63 mm bore and uses a PT3/8 port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa the push force is 2182 N, and the maximum push force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares the exact same mounting footprint and hardware as other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. This specific SKU lacks the internal -S magnet, so it cannot support AirTAC CMSE or DMSE position sensors out of the box.
