Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X160-06B
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X160-06B is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, 160mm stroke and a built-in 4M210-06 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 SAUF32X160-06B
The AirTAC SAUF32X160-06B is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in 4M210 5/2 solenoid valve on the cap. One DC24V coil signal drives the actuator, eliminating remote plumbing and saving a manifold slot. The extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore. It features a 1/8" cylinder port, an M10x1.25 rod thread, and 21mm adjustable cushions.
Operating strictly within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window, it delivers 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa. The integrated 4M210-06 valve has a 1/8" port, 14mm2 flow (Cv 0.78), and handles 5 cycles/sec. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 241N, and it can vertically lift about 20kg with a 2:1 margin. This terminal-entry, PT-thread SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept a reed switch.

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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 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 SAUF32X160-06B Is Used
Decentralized Clamping
Ideal for isolated clamping stations where running a dedicated line from a main manifold is impractical, switching directly via the integrated valve.
Inline Diverting
Perfect for small diverter arms on a conveyor, saving manifold space by operating each actuator independently from a single coil signal.
Compact Ejection
Suits localized part ejection in tight machine cells, using the built-in 4M210 valve to minimize external tubing and installation time.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X160-06B the Right Choice?
Size this 32mm bore against the 40mm option (628N push at 0.5MPa) if your load exceeds the 241N safe working figure, or drop to a smaller profile if force is unused. Confirm the DC24V coil, terminal entry, and PT threads match your control panel. The rod retracts when energised by default; reposition the valve to extend on signal. Size all forces within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, never the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. 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 160mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but ensure standard SC-series mounting guides are used.
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 SAUF32X160-06B FAQ
It uses a 4M210-06 valve (Cv 0.78, 14mm2 flow, 5 cycles/sec) on a 32mm bore, delivering 402N push at 0.5MPa. The DC24V coil has terminal entry and IP65 rating. Size forces within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve operating window, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body limit.
Yes, you can reconfigure it to extend-when-energised by repositioning the built-in valve. The valve only routes air; it is not a load lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so install an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a suspended load.
