This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X650STC, 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 SI63X650STC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 650mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X650STC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X650STC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 650mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa via a G3/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X650STC, a direct upgrade sharing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, port and TC trunnion mount.
The SAI upgrade features a redesigned piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. It also introduces SAIL, SAIF and BSAI variants absent from the SI line. The -S magnet supports CS1-B/DS1-B switches, while Viton H seals raise operating temps to 150C.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63X650STC 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 packages across transfer lines using the 650mm stroke, relying on the 1559N thrust at 0.5MPa to overcome lateral friction.
Pivots heavy tooling arms via the ISO 15552 TC trunnion mount, accommodating angular misalignment during the 650mm travel.
To replace the SI63X650STC, order the SAI63X650STC. Verify the ISO 15552 TC trunnion interface, 63mm bore, 650mm stroke, G3/8 port and -S magnet. Sizing both ways: a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa, while an 80mm bore yields 2513N. At 650mm, add external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts without air; for load holding use an external rod lock, pilot check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. The SAI family also offers the SAIF self-valve option.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X650STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X650STC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 63mm bore, 650mm stroke, G3/8 port, TC mounting and output force.
This double-acting cylinder uses a G3/8 air port. Force output is 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, 2805N push at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 318kgf at 1.0MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAI63X650STC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
