This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63BX320SH, 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 SI63BX320SH is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 320mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63BX320SH, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63BX320SH is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 320mm stroke. It delivers 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI63BX320SH, matching the interface, force, and stroke exactly.
This specific unit features a SUS304 stainless piston rod (-B) for corrosion resistance and a Viton H seal for 0-150 C high-temperature environments. The SAI upgrade uses two Y-shaped piston seals for low start-up pressure.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63BX320SH 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).
Leveraging the Viton H seal and SUS304 rod, this 63mm bore cylinder drives mechanisms in 0-150 C thermal environments where standard NBR seals would fail.
The 320mm stroke provides the extended reach needed to push packages across transfer lines, yielding 1559 N of force to redirect heavy goods reliably.
To replace the SI63BX320SH, order the SAI63BX320SH. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 320mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting accessory. The -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches. Neighbouring bores are 50mm (982 N push @0.5 MPa) and 80mm (2513 N push @0.5 MPa). For the 320mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending from side loads. Note that plain cylinders drift on air loss; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI63BX320SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63BX320SH. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 63mm bore, 320mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting interface, so it drops directly into existing fixtures.
The 63mm bore features a G3/8 air port and an M16x1.5 rod thread. Force output is 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 theoretical maximum of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63BX320SH replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
