This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU50X60CA, 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 SU50X60CA
The AirTAC Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X60CA is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU50X60CA, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X60CA
The AirTAC SU50X60CA is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 50mm bore and 60mm stroke. It delivers 982N push force at 0.5MPa via a 1/4" port. AirTAC replaced this unit with the SAU50X60CA, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series CA mounting.
This compact extruded-aluminum body is shorter than an ISO 15552 equivalent. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept sensors. The SAU upgrade supports modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches and adds a SAUF built-in-valve option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU50X60CA 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 SAU50X60CA 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.
Where the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X60CA Is Used
Clevis-Mounted Ejection
Uses the CA mount to pivot and push finished parts out of a machining center, applying up to 982N of force at 0.5MPa.
Package Diverting
Actuates a routing arm on a packaging line, where the 60mm stroke quickly redirects boxes without taking up excessive space.
Replacing the Airtac SU32~50 Standard Cylinder SU50X60CA with the SAU50X60CA
To replace the SU50X60CA, order the SAU50X60CA. Confirm the 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, PT seal, and the CA clevis mount. Because this specific SKU has no magnet (-S), it cannot hold a sensor; if you need position detection on the SAU, you must select the -S option and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. Size both ways: a 40mm bore gives 628N push, while a 63mm bore yields 1559N at 0.5MPa. For load holding, this cylinder drifts without live air; the cushions only decelerate. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure holding. The SAUF valve-integrated variant is available if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU50X60CA
- ✓ 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 SU50X60CA FAQ
Yes, the SU50X60CA is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU50X60CA. It shares the same 50mm bore, 60mm stroke, 982N force, 1/4" port, and CA mounting, so it bolts right in.
At 0.5MPa it provides 982N push and 825N pull; 1374N push at 0.7MPa; 1767N at 0.9MPa; and a 200kgf max at 1.0MPa. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take a sensor. The SAU replacement supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
