Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF80X160-10A
The AirTAC Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF80X160-10A is a genuine double-acting profile-type cylinder with a Ø80mm 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 SAUF80X160-10A
The SAUF80X160-10A is an extruded aluminum profile-type double-acting 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 80mm bore uses a 3/8" port, a Ø25mm rod with an M20x1.5 thread, and 28mm adjustable cushions. This 160mm stroke sits safely above the 75mm minimum.
Operating within the valve's 0.15-0.8 MPa window, it delivers 2513N push at 0.5 MPa. The integrated 4M310-10 valve provides 30 mm2 flow (Cv 1.68) and cycles up to 4 times per second. Computed sizing suggests a safe working load around 1508N (60% of the 0.5MPa push force), translating to a vertical lift capacity of roughly 128kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The AC220V terminal entry coil is IP65 rated.

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 (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 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 SAUF80X160-10A Is Used
Decentralized Press Clamps
Clamps large press beds directly without running long tubing back to a central manifold, using the integrated 4M310 valve for rapid local actuation.
Inline Diverters
Powers heavy package diverters on conveyor lines where installing a remote valve island is impractical, switching each diverter independently via one coil signal.
Pallet Lift Stations
Lifts pallets in localized zones using the 80mm bore's substantial push force, saving manifold space while fitting within tight machine footprints.
Is the Airtac SAUF Series Valve-Mounted Air Cylinder SAUF80X160-10A the Right Choice?
When sizing, compare this 80mm bore (2513N push at 0.5 MPa) against the neighboring 63mm bore (1559N) or 100mm bore (3927N) to match your load. Confirm the AC220V terminal entry and PT thread suit your control system. Remember the cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, but the assembled unit must operate strictly within the 0.15-0.8 MPa valve range. The rod retracts when energized by default, but you can reposition the valve to extend on signal. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept magnetic switches. For strokes over 300mm, ensure external side-load guidance. The valve routes air and is not a lock; if power or air drops, the piston drifts, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads.
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 SAUF80X160-10A FAQ
It generates 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5 MPa, reaching 4021N push at 0.8 MPa. The built-in valve is a 4M310-10 (3/8" port, Cv 1.68, 30 mm2 flow, max 4 cycles/sec). The cylinder body rates to 1.0 MPa, but the assembled unit operates strictly within 0.15-0.8 MPa. The coil is AC220V with terminal entry.
By default, the rod retracts when the coil is energized. You can reconfigure it to extend when energized simply by repositioning the built-in valve. This self-switching design means you need just one coil signal per actuator, completely eliminating the need for a separate remote valve.
