Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF50X100-06B
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF50X100-06B is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø50mm bore, 100mm 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 SAUF50X100-06B
The AirTAC SAUF50X100-06B is a double-acting profile-type cylinder with a built-in 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 makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It uses a Ø20 mm piston rod with an M16x1.5 thread, 1/4" cylinder ports, and 21 mm adjustable cushions.
Operating within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window, this 50 mm bore generates 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The integrated 4M210-06 valve has a 1/8" port, Cv 0.78, and handles up to 5 cycles/sec. The DC24V terminal entry coil is IP65 rated. Based on the 0.5 MPa push force, the safe working load is about 589 N, and it can vertically lift roughly 50 kg with a 2:1 margin. This SKU lacks the S magnet suffix, so it cannot accept a magnetic 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 (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 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 SAUF50X100-06B Is Used
Modular Clamp Stations
Ideal for decentralized clamping where one coil signal per actuator removes the need for a central manifold, keeping the 50 mm bore clamping force localized to the tool.
Inline Divert Gates
Perfect for routing items on a conveyor line, using the built-in 4M210-06 valve to achieve 5 cycles/sec without running long tubing back to a main control panel.
Compact Lift Stops
Provides a 50 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin, fitting neatly into tight pallet stops where a shorter profile cylinder body is required.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF50X100-06B the Right Choice?
Size by checking both neighboring bores: the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push, while the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. This 50 mm model delivers 982 N push, making it the right middle ground. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. Confirm the DC24V terminal coil and PT thread meet your electrical specs. The rod retracts when energized by default, but you can reconfigure it to extend by repositioning the valve. Since this SKU has no magnet, it cannot use sensors. The valve only routes air; it is not a lock, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load. For this 100 mm stroke side-load is minimal, but guide rods are recommended for strokes over 300 mm.
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 SAUF50X100-06B FAQ
It generates 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M210-06 with a 1/8" port, Cv 0.78, and a DC24V terminal coil. Although the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, you must size force within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa operating window.
By default the rod retracts when the coil is energized. You can reconfigure it to extend when energized simply by repositioning the integrated valve. This decentralized setup means one signal drives the cylinder directly, with no remote valve needed.
