Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X195S
The AirTAC Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X195S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 195mm 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 SAU100X195S
The AirTAC SAU100X195S is a double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100 mm bore and a 195 mm stroke. Because this stroke is non-standard, it is produced as a made-to-order unit. It features an extruded aluminum barrel that is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, yielding a significant space advantage in tight machine layouts. Operating at 0.15-1.0 MPa, it generates a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. The piston rod is 25 mm carbon steel with a 20 um hard chrome plating, and the air port is 1/2".
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 2356 N, which accounts for seal friction at 0.5 MPa rather than using the absolute maximum. This translates to lifting roughly 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The included -S magnet allows you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches directly into the barrel groove for position detection. If your environment exceeds the standard -20 to +70 C range, you can specify the Viton H high-temperature seal option to handle up to 150 C.

Where the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X195S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Stamping Press
Drives a 150 kg die set in an automotive parts stamping line, utilizing the 3927 N push force to form steel brackets reliably.
Pallet Dispenser Gate
Actuates a heavy loading gate on a conveyor system where the shorter profile length prevents interference with passing forklifts.
Injection Mold Ejection
Pushes finished plastic components out of a large molding machine, using the -S magnet and DMSG sensors to confirm ejection completion.
Is the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X195S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 100 mm bore unit, compare it to adjacent bores to ensure you are not over-engineering. The next size down, the 80 mm bore, provides 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while this 100 mm unit provides 3927 N. Since there is no larger standard SAU bore, moving beyond 100 mm requires a different cylinder family. The 195 mm stroke is a non-standard configuration, so expect a made-to-order lead time. Because this stroke is under 300 mm, rod bending is less of a concern, but you should still guide the load to prevent side loads from damaging the 25 mm rod seals.
Mount this cylinder using AirTAC SC-series accessories, such as LB foot brackets, FA/FB flanges, or CA/CB clevises. A plain cylinder will drift and drop its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the adjustable 29 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a brake. To hold a load securely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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 SAU100X195S FAQ
This 100 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/2" air port and an M20x1.5 rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa the push force is 5497 N, and at 0.9 MPa it is 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, it is not an ISO 15552 cylinder and will not match ISO footprints. It shares its mounting dimensions only with the AirTAC SC series, so you must use SC-series LB, FA, FB, CA, or CB brackets. The -S magnet in this model allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches to be fitted into the barrel groove.
