The AirTAC Airtac SAU Standard Air Cylinder SAU80X155S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 155mm 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.
The AirTAC SAU80X155S is a double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 80 mm bore and 155 mm stroke. Its extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than a same-bore ISO 15552 unit, saving valuable machine space. It delivers a push force of 2513 N and a pull force of 2268 N at 0.5 MPa. The 3/8" port and M20x1.5 rod thread handle high airflow for rapid cycling across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it accepts CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly in the profile groove for precise end-position detection. For real-world sizing, plan for a safe working load of about 1508 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push figure) to overcome seal friction. Vertically, it lifts about 128 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The standard TPU seals work from -20 to +70 C, while a Viton H option extends heat resistance up to 150 C.

Related SAU-family variants: SAUD (double rod), SAUJ (adjustable stroke), SAUF (with built-in solenoid valve), and SAU-S with built-in magnet. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N. Sensor switches: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
Pushes heavy gauge metal blanks into a forming die, utilizing the 2513 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to overcome material resistance.
Acts as a robust 155 mm stroke barrier on a conveyor line to halt loaded pallets, safely absorbing kinetic energy via adjustable cushions.
Secures heavy tooling halves together during low-pressure mold closing sequences, relying on the 80 mm bore strength.
When sizing this 80 mm bore, compare it against adjacent options. Stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. This SAU80X155S fits neatly for medium-heavy tasks requiring 2513 N. It shares mounting dimensions with AirTAC SC-series accessories, so you can use LB foot brackets, FA/FB flanges, or CA/CB clevises. An I, Y, F, or U knuckle handles rod-end pivoting.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air supply is lost or a valve centers; the adjustable 28 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends and do not act as a brake. If your application requires strict load holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 80 mm bore cylinder features a 3/8" port and generates 2513 N push / 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.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet. You can install CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic or reed switches directly into the extruded profile barrel groove without needing extra brackets.
