This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63BX80S, 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 SI63BX80S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 80mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63BX80S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63BX80S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 63mm bore, 80mm stroke, G3/8 port, and a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod. Delivering 1559N push force at 0.5MPa, it is replaced by the SAI63BX80S. This direct upgrade retains the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and port size for seamless fixture integration.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The built-in magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants unavailable in the SI line.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63BX80S 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 SAI63BX80S 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).
Uses the SUS304 rod for corrosion resistance when actuating grippers or clamps in washdown machining centers.
Provides 1559N push force at 0.5MPa to reliably push heavy pallets onto secondary conveyor lines at high speed.
To replace the SI63BX80S, order the SAI63BX80S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 80mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting accessory. The -B rod is SUS304 stainless steel, and the -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches (the SAI uses current AirTAC switches). For sizing, the 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 50mm bore gives 982N, while an 80mm bore provides 2513N. A plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63BX80S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63BX80S. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 80mm stroke, force, and G3/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 63mm bore features a G3/8 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63BX80S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
