This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X600, 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 SI63X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 600mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X600, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X600 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 600mm stroke. Delivering 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G3/8 port, it is replaced by the SAI63X600. This direct successor matches the exact interface, bore, stroke, force, port and mounting. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet, meaning it cannot accept a CS1-B or DS1-B sensor. The SAI family also introduces variants the SI lacked, such as the SAIL air-released lock, SAIF built-in 4M valve, and BSAI clamp-lock. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a Viton H seal option raising the temperature range to 0-150 C. Because this is a 600mm stroke, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.

The SAI63X600 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 pallets along a 600mm conveyor section using 1559 N of force at 0.5 MPa, requiring external guides to prevent rod bending.
To replace the SI63X600, order the SAI63X600. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, G3/8 port (PT/G/NPT threads), and mounting accessory (LB, FA, CA, TC). This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor; order the SAI63X600S if position detection is needed. Sizing both ways: the 63mm bore gives 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 80mm neighbour yields 2513 N. A plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss; the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. For 600mm strokes, add external guides to prevent rod bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SI63X600 is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAI63X600. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, offering the same 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, output force, G3/8 port, and mounting interface. You simply order the SAI63X600 for your existing fixtures.
The 63mm bore features a G3/8 port and provides a push force of 1559 N and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 2182 N, and 2805 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X600 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
