This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAIJ63X40-30S, 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 SIJ63X40-30S 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 SAIJ63X40-30S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ63X40-30S is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 63 mm bore, G3/8 port, and a 40 mm nominal extend stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, yielding a usable 10-40 mm window. This SIJ model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAIJ63X40-30S, retaining the same interface, force, and mounting. The stop sets the end position but is not a load lock.
The SAIJ upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure, and the SAI family adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI line lacked.

The SAIJ63X40-30S 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 end-position tuning allows a single actuator to clamp parts of varying widths on the same fixture without swapping mechanical stops.
On-site stroke trimming lets a diverting gate accommodate different package lengths on a packaging line, ensuring precise contact without reprogramming.
Fine-tune the extend stroke by up to 30 mm to set exact insertion depths for pins or bushings during assembly, compensating for material tolerances.
To replace the discontinued SIJ63X40-30S, order the direct replacement SAIJ63X40-30S, reusing your FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. Choose the 30 mm adjust window when you need on-site end-position tuning between 10 and 40 mm. The -S suffix provides a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches (SAIJ uses current switches). For stroke lengths over 300 mm, verify side-load limits. The external stop is not a lock; for held loads use SAIL/BSAI or an external rod lock.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ63X40-30S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAIJ63X40-30S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63 mm bore, 40 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjust window, G3/8 port, and mounting options. The SAIJ features an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life and lower start-up pressure.
The external stop screw window is 30 mm, allowing you to shorten the 40 mm nominal extend stroke down to 10 mm on-site. The stop sets end position and does not hold loads; use an external rod lock for load holding.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAIJ63X40-30S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
