This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAI63X900TC, 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 SI63X900TC is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 900mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAI63X900TC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SI63X900TC is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 900 mm stroke, delivering 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa via a G3/8 port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAI63X900TC. The SAI is a direct upgrade: it matches the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, TC trunnion mount, M16x1.5 rod thread, and output force, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The SAI upgrade introduces a refined piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended lifespan. For this non-magnet SKU, position sensing is not possible. If high heat is a factor, Viton H seals raise the operating range to 150 C.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAI63X900TC carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAI63X900TC 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 between conveyor zones using the 1559 N force and 900 mm reach, requiring external guides to prevent rod bending.
Drives oversized clamping arms or welding fixtures through a full 900 mm cycle, relying on the 30 mm adjustable cushions to decelerate loads.
To replace the SI63X900TC, order the SAI63X900TC. Confirm the ISO 15552 TC trunnion mounting, 63 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 thread. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; order an -S variant if sensing is required. Sizing both ways: a 50 mm bore yields 982 N push, while an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. For the 900 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve, rod lock, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SI63X900TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAI63X900TC. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, matching the 63 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, G3/8 port, TC mount, and output force, so it drops directly into existing fixtures.
The G3/8 port feeds a 20 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1559 N and pulls 1402 N. Push force is 2182 N at 0.7 MPa and 2805 N at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical max 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 SAI63X900TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
