This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X600SH, 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 SU50X600SH
The AirTAC SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600SH 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 SAU50X600SH, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600SH
The AirTAC SU50X600SH is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore and 600mm stroke. It delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa via a 1/4" port. The direct replacement is the SAU50X600SH, matching the exact body, stroke, force, port, and SC-series mounting.
This unit includes a piston magnet (-S) for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; upgrading to the SAU requires current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The -H seal option provides Viton/FKM high-temperature resistance up to 150 C.

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 SAU50X600SH produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600SH Is Used
Long-Stroke Diversion
Pushes packages across a 600mm conveyor lane using the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, requiring external guides to prevent rod bending over the extended travel.
High-Temperature Actuation
Operates packaging heat tunnels up to 150 C utilizing the Viton H seal option, cycling safely at 30-800 mm/s without premature elastomer degradation.
Replacing the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X600SH with the SAU50X600SH
To replace this discontinued SU50X600SH, order the SAU50X600SH direct equivalent, confirming the 50mm bore, 600mm stroke, M16x1.5 rod thread, 1/4" port, and SC-series mounting accessories are retained. Because this is a 600mm stroke, you must use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. The -S magnet on this legacy cylinder worked with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, but the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If sizing alternatives, a 40mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 63mm bore yields 1559 N. The -H Viton seal handles 0-150 C environments. For load holding, note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the air cushion only decelerates, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The SAU family also offers a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve, an option the SU line lacked.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU50X600SH
- ✓ 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 SU50X600SH FAQ
Yes, the SU50X600SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU50X600SH. It shares the same 50mm bore, 600mm stroke, 1/4" port, output force, and SC-series mounting. The main upgrade is that the SAU uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches found on this SU model.
This 50mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa the push force is 1374 N, and the theoretical maximum force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
