This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X205S, 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 SI63X205S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 205mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X205S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X205S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 205mm stroke. Delivering 1559N push force at 0.5MPa through a G3/8 port, it is replaced by the SAI63X205S. This direct successor matches the exact interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF and BSAI variants the SI lacked. The -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while a plain cylinder needs a pilot check valve for load holding.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63X205S 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 SAI63X205S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×205 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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).
Provides reliable 1559N clamping force for mid-weight machining fixtures.
Drives 205mm diverting arms to route medium-density goods on sorting lines.
Acts as a robust stopper for pallets up to 79kg in vertical lift scenarios.
To replace the SI63X205S, order the SAI63X205S direct. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 205mm stroke, G3/8 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. Keep the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Sizing both ways: a 50mm bore yields 982N push, while an 80mm bore yields 2513N at 0.5MPa. For 205mm strokes, ensure guide alignment to prevent rod bending. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding use the SAIL lock or an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X205S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X205S, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 205mm stroke, G3/8 port and output force.
It features a G3/8 port. Force output is 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X205S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
