This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU40X560, 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.
Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560
The AirTAC Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 560mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU40X560, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560
The AirTAC SU40X560 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 40mm bore and 560mm stroke. It delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa via a 1/4" port. The direct replacement is the SAU40X560, matching the bore, stroke, output force, port size and SC-series mounting.
Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept a sensor. If sensing is needed, the SAU upgrade uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches (the SU line used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B). The SAU family also adds a SAUF valve-integrated variant the SU lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU40X560 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAU40X560 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.
Where the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560 Is Used
Light Press Ejection
Ejects small stamped parts from a press bed, where the compact profile body saves space compared to older ISO cylinders.
Replacing the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560 with the SAU40X560
To replace this SU40X560, order the SAU40X560. Verify your 1/4" port thread (PT/G/NPT), M12x1.25 rod end, and SC-series mounting (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB). This non-magnet SKU cannot take a switch; if you need position sensing, the SAU replacement requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors rather than the old CS1-B/DS1-B. Sizing both ways: a 32mm bore offers 402N push at 0.5MPa, while a 50mm bore gives 982N. For the 560mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. The cushion only decelerates; use a pilot-operated check valve or rod lock to hold loads. The SAUF variant integrates a 4M valve if needed.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU40X560
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S): sensor family CS1-B → CMSG
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB)
- ✓ Need a built-in valve? → SAUF
Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU40X560 FAQ
Yes, the SU40X560 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU40X560. It shares the same 40mm bore, 560mm stroke, 628N push force at 0.5MPa, 1/4" port and SC-series mounting accessories, fitting the same application directly.
It delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 879N push at 0.7MPa, 1130N at 0.9MPa, and a max of 128 kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor. The SAU replacement supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches, whereas the SU used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.
