This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X100TC, 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 SU50X100TC 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 SAU50X100TC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU50X100TC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore and 100mm stroke. It delivers 982N push force at 0.5MPa via a 1/4" port. AirTAC replaced it with the SAU50X100TC, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, and SC-series TC mounting interface.
This compact extruded-aluminium body is shorter than an ISO 15552 equivalent. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; the SAU upgrade adds sensing via CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches and offers a SAUF valve-integrated option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU50X100TC 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 SAU50X100TC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| -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.
Uses the TC mount to pivot and push 50kg parcels cleanly off a sorting line within the 100mm stroke.
Acts as a compact 982N barrier to halt pallets, retracting quickly thanks to the 30-800mm/s speed range.
Secures light metal parts for machining, applying a safe 589N clamping force without distorting the workpiece.
To replace this SU50X100TC, order the SAU50X100TC. Confirm the 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and TC mounting are retained. Sizing checks: a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa, while a 63mm bore gives 1559N, providing lateral options if your 982N requirement changes. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot take a switch; if you need sensing on the SAU, specify the magnet and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For load holding on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the adjustable cushions only decelerate. The SAUF variant integrates a 4M valve if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU50X100TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU50X100TC. It matches the 50mm bore, 100mm stroke, 982N force, 1/4" port, and TC mounting, so it fits the same application without modification.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 982N and pulls 825N; at 0.7MPa it pushes 1374N, and the theoretical max is 200kgf at 1.0MPa. The cushions only decelerate; the cylinder will not hold a load on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU50X100TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
