This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X200, 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 SI63X200 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 200mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X200, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X200 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder, delivering a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa through its 63 mm bore and 200 mm stroke. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X200, a direct upgrade retaining the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept position sensors like the legacy CS1-B or DS1-B switches. For applications requiring load holding on air loss, note that a standard cylinder drifts; you would need an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.

The SAI63X200 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).
Ideal for holding workpieces in CNC machining fixtures, utilizing the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa to secure parts against cutting forces.
Drives 200 mm stroke diverting arms on packaging lines to route boxes, operating efficiently within the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
To replace the discontinued SI63X200, order the SAI63X200. Verify your existing fixture's ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the 200 mm stroke, and the G3/8 port size. If you require position sensing, select an SAI63X200S with a magnet, as this non-S SI unit cannot accept a sensor. Sizing both ways: a 50 mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N. The 63 mm bore provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa. Remember that air cushions only decelerate the load near end-of-stroke; they do not hold position. For dead-load holding, use an external rod lock, a pilot check valve, or the SAIL air-released lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X200 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI63X200. It shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The bore features a G3/8 air port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push is 2182 N, and at 0.9 MPa it is 2805 N. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X200 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
