This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X535S, 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 SI63X535S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 535mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X535S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X535S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 535mm stroke, delivering 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X535S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI successor features an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. It also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line. The original -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI uses current AirTAC switches.

| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63X535S 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).
Actuates routing gates on package lines, utilizing the 1559 N thrust to push heavy cartons reliably at speed.
Provides steady downward pressure for light assembly tasks, safely handling up to 79 kg of vertical load.
Drives 535mm stroke stops and lifts in automated storage systems, dropping into existing ISO 15552 fixtures.
To replace the SI63X535S, order the SAI63X535S and verify your ISO 15552 mounting fixtures, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. The 535mm stroke is within the 1500mm standard limit, but at this length you must account for side-load and rod-bending risks by using an external guide to prevent premature wear. If sizing up or down, the neighboring 50mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 80mm bore provides 2513 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X535S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X535S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 535mm stroke, force, and G3/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 63mm bore cylinder features a G3/8 air port and provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa push is 2182 N, at 0.9 MPa it is 2805 N, and the theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X535S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
