This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU32X640TC, 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 SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU32X640TC is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 640mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU32X640TC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU32X640TC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 32mm bore and 640mm stroke. Built with an extruded aluminium barrel, it is more compact than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore and shares AirTAC SC-series mounting accessories. It delivers a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa via a 1/8 inch port. AirTAC replaced this EOL model with the SAU32X640TC, a direct alternative retaining the exact body dimensions, force, port size and TC mounting interface.
Two key upgrades exist in the SAU replacement: it uses current CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, and it offers a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU line never had. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot support sensing, and because of the 640mm stroke, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAU32X640TC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

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.
Ejects machined components from a fixture over a 640mm distance, relying on external guides to prevent rod bending during the extended cycle.
To replace the discontinued SU32X640TC, order the SAU32X640TC, ensuring you keep the 32mm bore, 640mm stroke, 1/8 inch port, M10x1.25 rod thread and TC mounting. When sizing both ways, dropping to a smaller bore loses too much force for this application, while a larger 40mm bore provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa but requires a 1/4 inch port and different mounting geometry. Because this SKU has no magnet (-S), it cannot accept any sensor; if sensing is needed on the new unit, you must specify an SAU magnet and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches rather than the old CS1-B/DS1-B family. The 640mm stroke necessitates an external guide to manage side loads and prevent rod bending. Finally, a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU32X640TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU32X640TC. It matches the 32mm bore, 640mm stroke, 402N force, 1/8 inch port and TC mounting interface, so it fits the same application without mechanical changes.
The double-acting cylinder provides a push of 402 N and pull of 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 563 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept a sensor. If sensing is required on the SAU replacement, you must use the current CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B or DS1-B.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU32X640TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
