Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø100mm bore, 100mm stroke and a built-in 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve — it switches itself from one coil signal, so no separate remote valve or extra plumbing is needed.

About the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B
The SAUF100X100S-10B is an extruded aluminum profile-type double-acting cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M310-10 5/2 solenoid valve on the cap. One coil signal drives the actuator, eliminating remote plumbing and saving a manifold slot. It is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The bore dictates a 1/2 inch cylinder port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 29 mm adjustable cushions.
Operating strictly within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window, it delivers 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. A computed buyer insight: safe working load is roughly 2356 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), allowing a vertical lift of about 200 kg with a 2:1 margin. The DC24V terminal coil offers IP65 protection, and the S suffix provides a piston magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

The cylinder rates to 1.0 MPa but the built-in valve operates 0.15–0.8 MPa, so run the assembled SAUF at 0.15–0.8 MPa. Default: rod retracts when the coil is energised (reconfigurable to extend). Specs follow the official AirTAC SAUF datasheet. Port options: PT / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
Sized within the valve's 0.15–0.8 MPa range. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

SAUF does not hold its load without air — the valve routes air, it is not a lock. For a held load, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Where the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B Is Used
Decentralized Press Clamping
Clamps heavy press blanks directly at the tool point using one DC24V signal, avoiding long tube runs from a central manifold.
Inline Pallet Diverter
Switches heavy pallets on a conveyor line independently, with the 4M310-10 valve handling 4 cycles per second.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lifts a 200 kg gate with a 2:1 safety margin using the 100 mm bore, saving manifold space in tight control panels.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B the Right Choice?
Size force between the 80 mm bore (push 2513 N at 0.5 MPa) and this 100 mm bore (push 3927 N at 0.5 MPa). The 4M310-10 valve gives 30 mm2 flow (Cv 1.68) at 3/8 inch. Confirm the DC24V terminal entry and PT threads. The cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa but the assembled unit operates at 0.15-0.8 MPa. Default action retracts the rod when energised; reposition the valve to extend on signal. The valve routes air and does not hold load on pressure loss—add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. At 100 mm stroke side-load is minimal, but for strokes over 300 mm add a guide.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Force at 0.15–0.8 MPa
- ✓ Coil voltage matches panel
- ✓ Terminal vs grommet entry
- ✓ Retract- or extend-when-energised
- ✓ Load-holding → external rod lock
Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF100X100S-10B FAQ
It pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, reaching 6282 N at 0.8 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M310-10 (3/8 inch port, Cv 1.68, 30 mm2 flow). It uses a DC24V terminal coil. You must size force within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa operating window, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating.
No. The built-in 5/2 valve routes air but is not a load lock. If air is lost, the piston drifts and the 29 mm cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The default action retracts when energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend on signal.
