Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X500-10B
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X500-10B is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø63mm bore, 500mm 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 SAUF63X500-10B
The SAUF63X500-10B 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 cylinder of the same bore. This 63mm bore uses a 3/8" air port, a Ø20mm rod with an M16x1.5 thread, and 21mm adjustable cushions.
Operating within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve window, it delivers 1559N push force at 0.5 MPa. The 3/8" ported 4M310-10 valve provides 30 mm2 flow (Cv 1.68) at up to 4 cycles/s. The DC24V terminal coil offers IP65 protection. Based on the 0.5 MPa push figure, the safe working load is about 935N, allowing a vertical lift of roughly 79kg with a 2:1 margin. This SKU lacks the S magnet suffix and 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 (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 SAUF63X500-10B Is Used
Sorting Diverter
Decentralized diverter gate on a high-speed conveyor. The integrated valve eliminates long tube runs back to a central manifold, improving response time.
Pallet Stopper
Independent pallet stopping station in a warehouse line. One DC24V signal actuates the 500mm stroke without occupying a manifold slot.
Machine Guard Gate
Remote access gate on a large machine tool. The self-switching cylinder simplifies installation and reduces plumbing complexity across the facility.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF63X500-10B the Right Choice?
Size by checking both neighboring bores: the 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 80mm bore yields 2513N. This 63mm bore provides 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5 MPa, fitting your requirement between those options. Confirm the DC24V terminal entry and PT thread match your control setup. The default action retracts the rod when the coil is energised, but you can reposition the valve to extend-when-energised. Always size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range, never the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating. The built-in valve only routes air; it is not a lock, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold loads. For this 500mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
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 SAUF63X500-10B FAQ
It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M310-10 (5/2 solenoid) with 3/8" porting, Cv 1.68, and 4 cycles/s max. The DC24V coil runs at 3.0W with IP65 protection. Size force within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve operating window, not the 1.0 MPa cylinder body rating.
Yes, you can reposition the valve on the cap to configure the cylinder to extend-when-energised. 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-operated check valve for load holding.
