This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X10, 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10
The AirTAC SU100X10 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder, delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 100 mm bore and 10 mm stroke. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU100X10. This direct upgrade matches the original 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, 29 mm cushions and SC-series mounting, while retaining the compact extruded aluminium body that is shorter than a standard ISO 15552 unit.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. Furthermore, the SAU family introduces a built-in 4M solenoid valve option (SAUF) and uses modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches, whereas the old SU line had no valve integration.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAU100X10 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10 Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Ideal for short-stroke high-force pressing operations, delivering 3927 N at 0.5 MPa to seat bearings or form thick materials.
Pallet Diverter
Acts as a robust diverter arm on heavy-duty conveyor lines, using its 10 mm stroke to push loaded pallets onto secondary tracks.
Dock Door Latch
Provides a secure locking pin mechanism for industrial loading dock doors, utilizing the 801 kgf maximum theoretical force for heavy resistance.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10 with the SAU100X10
To replace the SU100X10, order the SAU100X10 direct equivalent, verifying your 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, PT/G/NPT thread standard and SC-series mounting accessories. Since this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support a magnetic switch; if sensing is required, you must upgrade to an SAU100X10-S and switch to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family. If you need higher force, the SAU100X10 provides 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, but if you need less, consider the 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa). For any held load, remember this cylinder drifts without live air, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the 29 mm cushions only decelerate near stroke end.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X10
- ✓ 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X10 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X10 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X10. It offers identical bore, stroke, 1/2" port, 801 kgf max force and SC-series mounting compatibility, meaning it fits the same application without mechanical changes.
The SU100X10 delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It cannot hold a load without live air; the cushions only decelerate, so use an external rod lock for holding. This no-magnet SKU also cannot accept a sensor.
