This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63BX800, 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 SI63BX800 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 800mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63BX800, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63BX800 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 800mm stroke. Delivering 1559N push force at 0.5MPa, it features a SUS304 stainless piston rod (-B) for corrosion resistance. The direct replacement is the SAI63BX800, matching the bore, stroke, 318kgf max force, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade utilizes two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63BX800 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63BX800 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 packages across a 800mm transfer lane using the 1559N push force at 0.5 MPa, guided externally to prevent rod bending.
Actuates test fixtures in humid chambers using the SUS304 stainless rod option, operating reliably between -20 and +70 C.
To replace the SI63BX800, order the SAI63BX800. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. Sizing both ways: a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa, while an 80mm bore yields 2513N. For this 800mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63BX800 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63BX800. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 63mm bore, 800mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting fixtures.
The G3/8 port bore delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182N push at 0.7 MPa, 2805N at 0.9 MPa, and a 318kgf max at 1.0MPa. Speed is 30-800mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63BX800 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
