This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X155S, 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 SU50X155S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 155mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU50X155S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU50X155S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore and 155mm stroke. It delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, operating at 30-800 mm/s via a 1/4" port. The direct replacement is the SAU50X155S, matching the bore, stroke, output force, and SC-series mounting.
This 155mm stroke is nonstandard, meaning the SAU replacement must be ordered to this exact length. The original -S magnet worked with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, but the SAU upgrade uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU50X155S 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 SAU50X155S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×155 | 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 securing mid-weight workpieces during machining, utilizing the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa for rigid holding.
Provides reliable actuation for routing goods on a production line, with the 155mm stroke offering precise travel distance.
To replace the SU50X155S, order the SAU50X155S, confirming the 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because the 155mm stroke is nonstandard, specify it exactly when ordering the SAU. The -S magnet means you must switch from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For higher force, the 63mm bore offers 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa; for lighter loads, the 40mm bore gives 628 N. Since the 155mm stroke is under 300mm, rod bending is minimal, but for side loads add a guide. A plain cylinder drifts without air; use an external rod lock for load holding. The SAUF variant adds a built-in valve the SU lacked.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SU50X155S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU50X155S. It offers the same 50mm bore, 155mm stroke, 1/4" port, output force, and SC-series mounting compatibility. You simply order the SAU equivalent.
The force ratings are: push 982 N and pull 825 N at 0.5 MPa, push 1374 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because your SU model has the -S magnet, note that the SAU replacement requires upgrading from the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU50X155S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
