Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU80X100
The AirTAC SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU80X100 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 100mm stroke, 3/8" 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 SAU80X100
The AirTAC SAU80X100 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a 100 mm stroke. Its extruded aluminium barrel makes it shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 80 mm bore, delivering a space win in tight machine envelopes. It provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, operating on a 3/8" port with a 25 mm piston rod.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. If your environment exceeds standard limits, a Viton H seal raises the operating temperature range from -20 to +70 C up to 0-150 C.

Where the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU80X100 Is Used
Injection Mould Clamping
Provides robust 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa to secure mid-sized injection mould halves, utilising its compact profile to fit within dense press frameworks.
Heavy Package Diversion
Deploys a 100 mm stroke to push heavy cartons off a main logistics line, handling the dynamic load safely with its 25 mm hard-chrome rod.
Pallet Positioning Stops
Acts as a high-strength physical stop for inbound pallets on roller conveyors, absorbing impact while maintaining position via SC-series foot mounts.
Is the Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU80X100 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 80 mm bore, verify your force margins against adjacent options. Stepping down to a 63 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 1559 N, while stepping up to a 100 mm bore increases it to 3927 N. This SAU80X100 fits neatly between them for applications needing around 2500 N. Mounting relies on AirTAC SC-series accessories, including LB foot, FA/FB flange and CA/CB clevis brackets, alongside I, Y, F or U rod knuckles.
Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve centres; the adjustable 28 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end and do not function as a brake. To suspend a load securely, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. With a 100 mm stroke, side-load risks are minimal, but always ensure proper alignment to prevent premature rod seal wear.
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 SAU80X100 FAQ
The SAU80X100 delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15-1.0 MPa, runs at 30-800 mm/s, and features a 3/8" port with a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends.
It is not an ISO 15552 cylinder, but it shares mounting dimensions with the AirTAC SC series, so you can use LB, FA, FB, CA and CB brackets. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG magnetic switches.
