This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X450TC, 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 SI63X450TC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 450mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X450TC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X450TC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 450 mm stroke. It delivers 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a G3/8 port and a TC trunnion mount. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X450TC, a direct replacement matching the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, force, and dimensions.
The SAI upgrade features a revised piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. If high-temperature operation is needed, Viton H seals raise the limit to 150 C.

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).
Indexes heavy pallets along a TC-mounted conveyor line, utilizing the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa to overcome friction during transit.
Pushes packed shipping cases from roller beds, relying on the adjustable air cushions to decelerate the rod smoothly at stroke end.
To replace the SI63X450TC, order the SAI63X450TC. Verify the TC trunnion mounting, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. Because this SKU has no magnet, it cannot support position sensing; order an SAI variant with the S suffix if switches are required. At 0.5 MPa, the 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push; if undersized, the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. For the 450 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. The air cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not hold the load. For secure load holding on air loss, use an external pilot check valve, a rod lock, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X450TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X450TC. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and TC trunnion mount, fitting directly into existing fixtures.
The 63 mm bore uses a G3/8 port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push is 2182 N, and 2805 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
