This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63AX100, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.

The AirTAC Airtac SI63 Standard Cylinder SI63AX100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 100mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63AX100, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63AX100 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 100mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa through a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX100, which maintains the exact same interface, bore, stroke, force, port and mounting. This SKU features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for corrosion resistance. Because it lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept a magnetic sensor.
The SAI63AX100 upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF and BSAI variants the SI line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63AX100 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63AX100 produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Secures stainless workpieces in CNC machining centers, utilizing the SUS420J2 rod to resist coolant corrosion while providing 1559N of clamping force.
Actuates diverting arms on packaging lines, where the 100mm stroke quickly pushes cartons to adjacent lanes without requiring magnetic sensing.
To replace the SI63AX100, order the SAI63AX100. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 100mm stroke, G3/8 port (PT/G/NPT thread options) and your mounting accessory. This SKU has no magnet (-S), so it cannot take a CS1-B/DS1-B sensor. Sizing both ways: a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa, while an 80mm bore yields 2513N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63AX100 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX100. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 63mm bore, 100mm stroke, output force, G3/8 port and mounting fixtures.
This 63mm bore cylinder features a G3/8 air port. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63AX100 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
