The AirTAC Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU50X195 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 195mm stroke, 1/4" 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.
The AirTAC SAU50X195 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder featuring a 50 mm bore and a 195 mm stroke. Its extruded aluminum barrel makes it shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, providing a distinct spatial advantage in tight machine layouts. It delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa, operating on a 1/4" port with an M16x1.5 rod thread.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 589 N, which accounts for seal friction and smooth travel at 0.5 MPa. This translates to lifting about 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The unit uses adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke end. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches.

Applies consistent 982 N clamping force at 0.5 MPa to secure aluminum extrusions during CNC machining operations.
Pushes cartons off a main conveyor belt using a 195 mm stroke, fitting easily into compact sorter frames.
Raises lightweight access gates on automated storage retrieval systems, safely lifting parts under 50 kg.
When sizing this actuator, compare it against adjacent bores: the 40 mm version offers 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 63 mm provides 1559 N, allowing you to match exact load margins. The 195 mm stroke falls well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, requiring no special order. Since this model lacks the -S suffix, it has no magnet and cannot accept position sensors.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the piston will drift, and the air cushion acts only to decelerate, not to brake. For suspended or vertical loads, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Mounting hardware matches the AirTAC SC series, including LB foot, FA/FB flange, and CA/CB clevis options.
Quick checklist
The SAU50X195 has a 50 mm bore and 195 mm stroke. It delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa, a push force of 1374 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum force of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 1/4" port, an M16x1.5 rod thread, and operates at speeds between 30-800 mm/s.
No, the SAU is a profile-type cylinder that is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO standards. However, it shares mounting accessories with the AirTAC SC series, allowing you to use LB foot, FA/FB flange, and CA/CB clevis brackets. Additionally, this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept magnetic position sensors.
