This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X645S, 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 SI63X645S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 645mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X645S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X645S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 645mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa via a G3/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X645S, a direct sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and accessories.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. The SAI family also introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line. Your -S magnet works with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

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).
Drives large packages across transfer lines using the full 645mm travel, relying on external guides to absorb side loads during lateral pushing.
Positions machining fixtures over wide spans, utilizing the 1559N thrust at 0.5MPa to clamp and locate heavy workpieces securely.
To replace the SI63X645S, order the SAI63X645S. Verify your ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G3/8 port, and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, a 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 50mm bore gives 982N, while an 80mm bore provides 2513N. Because this is a 645mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. A plain cylinder drifts without air; for load holding on air loss, specify the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or use an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X645S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI63X645S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 645mm stroke, output force, and G3/8 port, fitting your existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder features a G3/8 air port and M16x1.5 rod thread. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X645S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
