This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU32X32S, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The SAU replacement uses the same profile body, bore, stroke, force and SC-series mounting. It moves to the current CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor switches (the SU used CS1-B / DS1-B) and adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.

The AirTAC Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU32X32S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 32mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU32X32S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU32X32S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 32mm bore and 32mm stroke. Delivering 402N push force at 0.5MPa via a 1/8" port, its direct replacement is the SAU32X32S, retaining the same body, force, and SC-series mounting.
The SAU upgrade introduces CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors (replacing this model's legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches) and adds a SAUF valve-integrated option. Note that air cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock to hold loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU32X32S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAU32X32S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×32 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
Legacy SU-family variants: SUD (double rod), SUJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAU equivalent (SUD→SAUD, SUJ→SAUJ). The current SAU line adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.
Ideal for pushing lightweight molded components out of a fixture using a safe 241N working load.
Short 32mm stroke actuates a diverting gate to route small boxes on a packing line efficiently.
Provides reliable clamping force for holding thin material sheets during light machining processes.
To replace this SU32X32S, order the SAU32X32S, confirming the 32mm bore, 32mm stroke, 1/8" port, M10x1.25 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because this SKU has the -S magnet, you must switch to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors as the old CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete. If you need more force, the neighbouring 40mm bore provides 628N push at 0.5MPa; if less is acceptable, drop to a smaller unit. For any stroke over 300mm, add a guide to prevent rod bending. A plain cylinder drifts without air, so fit a pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. You can also explore the SAUF variant if you want a built-in 4M solenoid valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU32X32S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU32X32S, which matches the 32mm bore, 32mm stroke, 402N force, 1/8" port, and SC-series mounting.
It delivers 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5MPa, 563N at 0.7MPa, and a max of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this is an -S model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors are obsolete; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU32X32S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
