This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X100SH, 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 SU50X100SH is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU50X100SH, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU50X100SH is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore and 100mm stroke, delivering 982N push force at 0.5MPa. The direct replacement is the SAU50X100SH, matching the 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounts.
This high-temp Viton H (-H) variant operates up to 150C. The -S magnet worked with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, but the SAU uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The SAU also adds a SAUF valve-integrated option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU50X100SH carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAU50X100SH produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×100 | 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.
Handles part ejection near heat sources using the Viton H seal rated for 0-150C, pushing with 982N at 0.5MPa.
Secures workpieces during light pressing tasks, delivering a maximum theoretical force of 200kgf at 1.0MPa.
To replace this SU50X100SH, order the SAU50X100SH. Confirm the 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, PT/G/NPT thread standard, and SC-series mounting. Because the -S magnet is present, note the sensor family changes from CS1-B/DS1-B to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. Sizing both ways: a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa, while a 63mm bore yields 1559N. For load holding, note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The SAUF built-in-valve variant is available if valve integration is needed.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU50X100SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU50X100SH, which shares the same 50mm bore, 100mm stroke, 1/4" port, and SC-series mounting accessories.
It delivers 982N push and 825N pull at 0.5MPa, 1374N at 0.7MPa, and a max of 200kgf at 1.0MPa. The -S magnet used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAU replacement requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU50X100SH replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
