This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63AX70S, 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 SI63AX70S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 70mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63AX70S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63AX70S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 70mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa via a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX70S, matching the interface, force, and stroke.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure. This -A variant uses a SUS420J2 stainless rod, and the -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63AX70S 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 SAI63AX70S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 mid-weight workpieces during machining, using the 1559N push force at 0.5MPa to hold parts firmly without deflection.
Actuates routing gates on 63mm bore assembly lines, providing reliable 70mm stroke movements at speeds up to 800mm/s.
To replace the SI63AX70S, order the SAI63AX70S and confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 70mm stroke, G3/8 port, and SUS420J2 stainless rod (-A). The built-in magnet (-S) supports CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa, while an 80mm bore yields 2513N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63AX70S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX70S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, keeping the same 63mm bore, 70mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting fixtures.
It features a G3/8 air port and provides 1559N push / 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. The speed range is 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63AX70S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
