This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X825S, 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 SI63X825S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 825mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X825S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X825S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 825 mm stroke. It delivers a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa via a G3/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X825S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact interface, bore, stroke, and mounting accessories.
The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. It also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI variants the SI lacked. The -S magnet works with CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

The SAI63X825S 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 sideways on a conveyor line over an 825 mm travel distance, utilizing the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa to overcome sliding friction reliably.
Ejects molded components from a deep press bed, where the 63 mm bore and 30 mm adjustable cushions absorb kinetic energy smoothly at the stroke ends.
To replace the SI63X825S, order the SAI63X825S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and your specific mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.). The -S magnet enables CS1-B/DS1-B sensors (the SAI uses current AirTAC switches). For sizing, the 63 mm bore gives 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa; dropping to a 50 mm bore yields 982 N, while an 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding, or specify the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 825 mm, this long stroke risks rod bending; use external guides to prevent side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X825S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAI63X825S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 63 mm bore, 825 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting interface, so it fits existing fixtures perfectly.
This double-acting cylinder features a G3/8 air port. The thrust ratings are: 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, 2805 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
