This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X300S, 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 SI63 Standard Cylinder SI63X300S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 300mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X300S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X300S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 300mm stroke. It delivers 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a G3/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X300S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port and mounting interface.
The SAI successor features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. For load holding, note that a standard cylinder drifts on air loss since cushions only decelerate; explore the SAIL or BSAI lock variants if needed. With the -S magnet, this unit supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

The SAI63X300S 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 medium-weight cartons off a main conveyor line utilizing the 1559 N push force and 300mm reach.
Acts as an extended-stop arm for pallets entering a workstation, absorbing kinetic energy via the adjustable air cushions.
To replace the SI63X300S, order the SAI63X300S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting interface (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G3/8 port, and the M16x1.5 rod thread. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present for position sensing; the SAI family uses current AirTAC switches, while the legacy SI used CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. When sizing, the 63mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa; neighbouring bores are 50mm (982 N) and 80mm (2513 N). Because the 300mm stroke is relatively long, prevent rod bending by minimizing side loads and using external guides. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air; for dead-load holding, consider the SAIL lock, BSAI clamp-lock, or an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X300S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI63X300S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 300mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The 63mm bore features a G3/8 air port and provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa push force is 2182 N, and at 0.9 MPa it is 2805 N. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
