Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X160S-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X160S-10A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø63mm bore, 160mm 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 SAUF63X160S-10A
The SAUF63X160S-10A is a double-acting profile cylinder with a built-in AirTAC 4M310 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 unit of the same bore. The 3/8 inch cylinder port and M16x1.5 rod thread handle robust tasks.
Operating strictly within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window, it delivers a 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. The 4M310-10 valve flows 30 mm2 (Cv 1.68) at up to 4 cycles per second. The AC220V terminal coil is IP65 rated. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 935 N, and vertical lift capacity is about 79 kg with a 2:1 margin. The S suffix denotes 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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 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 SAUF63X160S-10A Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gate
Decentralized diverter actuation on a conveyor line. One coil signal per gate removes the need for a central manifold, cutting tubing runs and installation time.
Warehouse Sortation Pusher
Independent package pushing at distributed sortation nodes. The integrated 4M310 valve handles the 160 mm stroke efficiently without remote plumbing.
Machine Tool Clamping
Local clamping of parts inside a large machine tool. The compact profile and self-switching valve save manifold slots while providing 1559 N of clamping force.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X160S-10A the Right Choice?
Size by comparing neighboring bores: the 50 mm bore pushes 982 N while the 80 mm bore pushes 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. This 63 mm bore provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. Confirm the AC220V terminal entry and PT thread meet your electrical specs. The rod retracts when energized by default but can be reconfigured to extend by repositioning the valve. The built-in valve routes air and does not hold loads without pressure; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure holding. For this 160 mm stroke, ensure adequate side-load guidance.
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 SAUF63X160S-10A FAQ
It pushes 1559 N and pulls 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M310-10 with a 3/8 inch port, Cv 1.68, and flows 30 mm2. The coil is AC220V with a terminal entry. You must size the force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve operating window, never the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating.
By default the rod retracts when the coil is energized, but you can reconfigure it to extend by repositioning the valve. The built-in valve only routes air; it is not a load lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a load.
