This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63AX950S, 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 SI63AX950S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 950mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63AX950S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63AX950S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 63 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, and a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod. It delivers 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX950S, retaining the same interface, bore, stroke, force, and mounting.
The SAI upgrade features 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 lock variants the SI lacked. Your -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63AX950S 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).
Pushes heavy pallets sideways on a packaging line using the 950 mm stroke and 1559 N force at 0.5 MPa.
Drives tooling stages in humid washdown areas using the SUS420J2 rod option for corrosion resistance.
To replace this SI63AX950S, order the SAI63AX950S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and your -A SUS420J2 rod with -S magnet. Sizing both ways: a 50 mm bore yields 982 N [email protected], while an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N. For loads needing holding without live air, use the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, as cushions only decelerate. At 950 mm, prevent rod bending by using external guides to manage side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63AX950S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63AX950S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 63 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, force, G3/8 port, and mounting fixtures exactly.
It uses a G3/8 port. Force ratings are: 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, 2805 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a 318 kgf theoretical max at 1.0 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63AX950S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
