This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAIJ63X40-20, 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 SIJ63 Double Rod Adjustable Cylinder SIJ63X40-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 40mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAIJ63X40-20, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ63X40-20 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder. Its external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, giving a usable 20-40 mm window from the 40 mm nominal maximum. The direct replacement is the SAIJ63X40-20, matching the interface, force, and mounting.
The SAIJ upgrade brings a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. This non-magnetic SKU cannot take a switch. The stop sets position only; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The SAIJ63X40-20 carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAIJ63X40-20 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).
Adjustable 20-40 mm extend for clamping parts of varying thicknesses where exact end-position tuning prevents over-travel damage.
Field-trim the stroke to set a diverter gate's exact reach without swapping the entire cylinder when package sizes change.
To replace the discontinued SIJ63X40-20, order the direct replacement SAIJ63X40-20, reusing your existing FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. The 20 mm adjust window is ideal if your end position needs on-site tuning within a 20-40 mm range. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; add external sensing if required. Since the 40 mm stroke is under 300 mm, side-load rod deflection is minimal.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ63X40-20 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAIJ63X40-20. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust window, G3/8 port, and mounting options, but adds an upgraded piston seal.
The external stop screw window is 20 mm, allowing you to shorten the 40 mm nominal extend stroke down to 20 mm. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAIJ63X40-20 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
