This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X1000S, 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X1000S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1000mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X1000S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU100X1000S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 1000mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it features a 1/2 inch port and a 25mm piston rod. AirTAC replaced this end-of-line unit with the SAU100X1000S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, port size, and SC-series mounting.
The SAU replacement modernizes the sensor groove, switching from the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. It also introduces the SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve variant, which the SU line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X1000S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAU100X1000S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×1000 | 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.
Pushes loaded pallets between roller conveyors using its 3927 N thrust at 0.5 MPa, handling substantial weight over the 1000mm travel.
Ejects bulky molded components from machinery, relying on the 29mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the heavy 100mm bore payload.
To replace this SU100X1000S, order the SAU100X1000S direct equivalent, verifying your 1/2 inch port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting hardware. Because this unit has an -S magnet, you must upgrade your switches from the old CS1-B/DS1-B to the modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If you need to downsize, a 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need more force, there is no larger standard profile bore. At 1000mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load forces. A plain cylinder drifts without live air, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. For self-switching needs, consider the new SAUF valve-integrated option.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU100X1000S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X1000S. It shares the identical 100mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 1/2 inch port, output force, and SC-series mounting, so it drops right into the same application.
The 100mm bore provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this is an -S magnet model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete; the SAU replacement requires the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU100X1000S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
