The AirTAC SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63BX180S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 180mm 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 SE63BX180S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding motion control. It delivers a robust 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 180 mm stroke, making it well-suited for mid-tier industrial actuation. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against machine frames.
This specific configuration incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior resistance in washdown or corrosive environments, and includes a built-in magnet (code S) for seamless integration with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic position sensors. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, softening hard impacts during high-speed operations.

Routes plastic containers on a high-speed beverage conveyor using the 180 mm stroke, leveraging the SUS304 rod to endure frequent washdown cycles without pitting.
Drives cardboard flaps on continuous-motion packaging machinery, utilizing the 1559 N push force to overcome carton stiffness while the adjustable cushion softens the retraction stop.
Opens and closes heavy machine tool safety doors, relying on the built-in magnet to trigger DMSE electronic sensors for interlock verification before the spindle starts.
Selecting this 63 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands less energy, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 982 N of push force, while moving up to the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. Because the stroke is 180 mm, maintaining alignment is critical; long unsupported strokes induce rod-bearing bending, so utilizing an external guide is highly recommended to prevent premature seal wear.
For retrofitting, this unit is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, meaning it serves as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders without altering mounting hardware. It uses a PT3/8 port and a 20 mm rod with an M16x1.5 thread. Keep in mind that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not hold a load. If the air supply is lost, the piston drifts, so applications requiring position holding without live pressure need a BSE rod lock variant or an external pilot-operated check valve.
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 reaches 2182 N, with a maximum push rating of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE63BX180s is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. It shares the standardized mounting interface and utilizes a PT3/8 port, ensuring hardware compatibility.
