This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X225S, 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 SI63X225S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 225mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X225S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X225S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 225mm stroke, delivering 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced it with the SAI63X225S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact interface, port, and force.
The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. The original SI utilized CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family introduces SAIL and BSAI lock variants previously unavailable.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63X225S 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 SAI63X225S 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).
Drives medium-duty machining clamps requiring 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to secure steel billets.
Powers a 225mm stroke diverting arm on a packaging line to route heavy cartons at 30-800 mm/s.
To replace the SI63X225S, order the SAI63X225S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 225mm stroke, G3/8 port, and the -S magnet for current AirTAC switches. If sizing down, a 50mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa; sizing up to 80mm provides 2513 N. Because stroke is 225mm, ensure guide alignment to prevent rod bending. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X225S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI63X225S. It matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 225mm stroke, force, and G3/8 port for a direct fixture fit.
The 63mm bore features a G3/8 port. It delivers 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, 2805 N at 0.9 MPa, and a max force of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X225S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
