Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500-06A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500-06A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, 500mm 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 SAUF32X500-06A
The SAUF32X500-06A is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M 5/2 solenoid valve on the cap. One coil signal drives the actuator, eliminating remote plumbing and saving a manifold slot. The extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. This 32mm bore uses a 1/8" cylinder port and a 12mm rod with an M10x1.25 thread.
Operating within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window, it delivers 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa. The integrated 4M210-06 valve provides 14mm2 flow (Cv 0.78) at 1/8" and handles 5 cycles/sec. The AC220V terminal coil is IP65 rated. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 241N, and vertical lift is about 20kg with a 2:1 margin.

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 SAUF32X500-06A Is Used
Decentralized Forming Press
Ideal for a large press where running a 500mm stroke actuator from a local AC220V signal saves long tubing runs back to a central manifold.
Inline Divert Gate
A 32mm bore divert gate that switches itself at up to 5 cycles/sec, keeping the main valve island free for higher-flow duties.
Packaging Pusher
Pushes light cartons with a safe 241N working load, using the built-in 4M210-06 valve to simplify machine wiring and maintenance.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF32X500-06A the Right Choice?
When sizing, compare this 32mm bore (402N push at 0.5 MPa) against the 40mm neighbor (628N push) to ensure adequate force. Confirm the AC220V terminal entry and PT thread match your supply. The rod retracts when energized but can be reconfigured to extend by repositioning the valve. Size force strictly within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. The valve routes air and is not a load lock; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding. With the 500mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
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 SAUF32X500-06A FAQ
It delivers 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M210-06 (1/8" port, Cv 0.78, 5 cycles/sec) driven by an AC220V terminal coil. Although the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, the assembled unit must operate within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window.
No to both. The 5/2 valve only routes air, so the piston drifts on air loss; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding. Also, this SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot take a magnetic switch.
