This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAID63X600, 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.
Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600
The AirTAC Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600 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 SAID63X600, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600
The AirTAC SID63X600 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 600 mm stroke. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The bore fixes the air port to G3/8, the piston rod is Ø20 mm with an M16x1.5 thread, and each end has a 30 mm adjustable air cushion. This legacy model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID63X600, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and port.
The SAID upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life, while retaining the 30-800 mm/s speed range. This SKU has no magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot accept a magnetic switch; for position feedback you must add an external sensor cam to the rear rod. A plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss—the piston drifts and the cushion only decelerates near stroke end—so for held loads use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. At 600 mm, add external guides to prevent rod bending under side load.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |

Where the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600 Is Used
Equal-Force Transfer Pusher
Pushes and pulls parts down a line with identical 1962 N @0.7 MPa force in both directions, using the rear rod as an external guide to resist yaw.
External Cam Positioning
Uses the protruding back rod to trip an external mechanical limit switch, since this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a cylinder-mounted sensor.
Replacing the Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600 with the SAID63X600
To replace the discontinued SID63X600, order the SAID63X600; it is a direct fit for the same ISO 15552 interface, G3/8 port, and FA/LB/TC mountings. Size both ways by checking the equal-both-ways force: this 63 mm bore gives 1402 N @0.5 MPa, so if you need more thrust, step up to the 80 mm bore (2268 N @0.5 MPa), or drop to the 50 mm bore (825 N @0.5 MPa) for lighter loads. A double-rod cylinder is the right choice when you need anti-rotation stability, equal push/pull forces, or a back rod to carry a sensor cam. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot take a magnetic switch. Finally, at 600 mm stroke, you must support the load with external guides to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAID63X600
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SID Series Double-Rod Cylinder SID63X600 FAQ
Yes, the SID63X600 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID63X600, which matches the 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface. The SAID family also adds an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The bore dictates a G3/8 air port.
