This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X312SN, 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 SI63X312SN is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 312mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X312SN, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X312SN is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 312mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa via a G3/8 port. The direct replacement is the SAI63X312SN, matching the exact interface, stroke and force.
The SAI upgrade features two Y-shaped one-way piston seals for low start-up pressure. The NBR seal handles -20 to +70C, while Viton H extends to 150C. This -S model supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

The SAI63X312SN 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 heavy cartons on packaging lines using its 1559N push force at 0.5MPa, with the 312mm stroke clearing wide conveyor belts.
Actuates stops and gates in pallet flow systems, where the NBR seals and 63mm bore offer reliable mid-weight force.
To replace the SI63X312SN, order the SAI63X312SN. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, NBR seal, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. The 312mm stroke is nonstandard (max standard is 1500mm), but SAI accommodates it; however, at 312mm you must use external guides to prevent rod bending and side loads. For sizing, the 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 50mm bore gives 982N, while an 80mm bore gives 2513N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant for load holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X312SN is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X312SN. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 63mm bore, 312mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting fixtures.
The 63mm bore uses a G3/8 port. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a max theoretical force of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X312SN replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
