Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X95S
The AirTAC Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X95S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 95mm 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 SAU100X95S
The AirTAC SAU100X95S is a double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 95 mm stroke. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, it is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 100 mm bore, offering a distinct space advantage in tight machine layouts. It delivers a robust 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 1/2 inch port and a 25 mm carbon steel rod with an M20x1.5 thread.
Because this is a non-standard 95 mm stroke, it is produced as a made-to-order unit. For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 2356 N (roughly 60% of the 0.5 MPa push force) to account for friction, or expect it to lift about 200 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in magnet (-S) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors in the profile groove, and you can specify Viton H seals if your environment requires the 0-150 C high-temperature option.

Where the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X95S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Drives a heavy stamping die over the 95 mm stroke, utilizing the 3927 N push force to form thick sheet metal components securely.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a high-force stopper gate on a heavy-duty pallet conveyor, using its compact profile to fit within tight conveyor frame clearances.
Injection Mold Ejector
Ejects dense molded parts from an injection machine, relying on the 200 kg vertical lift capacity and smooth end-of-stroke cushioning.
Is the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU100X95S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, compare it against adjacent bores: a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. If your application demands even more power than this 100 mm bore's 3927 N, you have reached the top of the SAU range and must explore alternative series. The 1/2 inch port and M20x1.5 rod thread are fixed for this bore size. You can mount it using AirTAC SC-series accessories like LB foot brackets, FA/FB flanges, or CA/CB clevises. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the adjustable 29 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends rather than locking the load. For secure holding, integrate 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 SAU100X95S FAQ
This 100 mm bore cylinder features a 1/2 inch port, a 25 mm rod, and an M20x1.5 thread. It delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The adjustable air cushion is 29 mm at each end, and the operating speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
No, it is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 hardware. You must use AirTAC SC-series mounting accessories like LB, FA, or CA brackets. However, because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors into the extruded profile barrel groove.
