This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X600S, 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 SU50X600S
The AirTAC SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 600mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU50X600S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600S
The AirTAC SU50X600S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore, 600mm stroke, and a 1/4" port. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it uses an extruded aluminum barrel that is more compact than a standard ISO 15552 unit of the same size. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU50X600S, a direct replacement retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series mounting.
The -S magnet on this old model worked with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, but the SAU replacement upgrades to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The SAU family also adds a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU line never offered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU50X600S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAU50X600S 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 SU50X600S Is Used
Long-Stroke Diverting
Pushes packages across a 600mm conveyor lane using the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, guided externally to prevent rod bending.
Compact Ejection Station
Fits a tight machine cell using the shorter extruded profile body while delivering 1374 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa to eject parts.
Replacing the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600S with the SAU50X600S
To replace this SU50X600S, order the SAU50X600S direct equivalent, confirming the 50mm bore, 600mm stroke, 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB). Because this unit has the -S magnet, note that your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches must change to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family on the new SAU cylinder. If you need integrated flow control, explore the SAUF variant with its built-in valve. For sizing alternatives, dropping to a 40mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 63mm bore provides 1559 N. At 600mm of stroke, prevent rod bending by supporting the load with an external guide to manage side loads. Finally, remember this cylinder will not hold a load without live air—the cushions only decelerate—so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need static holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU50X600S
- ✓ 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 SU50X600S FAQ
Yes, the SU50X600S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU50X600S. It shares the same 50mm bore, 600mm stroke, 982 N output force at 0.5 MPa, 1/4" port, and SC-series mounting accessories, so it drops right into the same application.
The 50mm bore delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this is an -S magnet model, it used the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAU replacement requires upgrading to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family.
