Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S
The AirTAC Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 190mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.

About the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S
The AirTAC SAU100X190S is a double-acting profile-type cylinder engineered for heavy-duty tasks. It delivers a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. Featuring a 100 mm bore and 190 mm stroke, this extruded aluminum barrel design is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, offering a significant space advantage in tight machine layouts. It operates at 30-800 mm/s and uses a 1/2" port with an M20x1.5 rod thread.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 2356 N, which accounts for seal friction at 0.5 MPa. In vertical lifting applications, this translates to safely raising around 200 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The integrated -S piston magnet allows for direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors along the profile groove. If your environment exceeds the standard -20 to +70 C range, you can opt for Viton H seals to handle up to 150 C.

Where the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S Is Used
Injection Mold Clamping
Provides the 3927 N push force required to secure heavy injection mold halves within compact machinery frames.
Pallet Diverting
Handles the robust lateral force needed to divert heavy loaded pallets on a high-speed packaging conveyor line.
Heavy Gate Actuation
Drives large automated security or access gates in industrial warehouses, utilizing the 200 kg vertical lift equivalent.
Is the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this model, consider the 80 mm bore if your load is lighter, offering 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, as the 100 mm bore provides a massive 801 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Mounting is highly versatile since it shares identical LB foot, FA/FB flange, and CA/CB clevis accessories with the AirTAC SC series. Remember that the adjustable 29 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not function as a brake. If your application requires holding a load vertically during air loss or valve centering, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to prevent drift.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB — same as SC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X190S FAQ
This model features a 1/2" port and delivers a push of 3927 N and a pull of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 5497 N, and the theoretical maximum force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, it shares mounting dimensions with the AirTAC SC series for foot and flange brackets. Because this is the -S variant, it includes a piston magnet, allowing you to install CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches directly into the barrel groove.
