This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X100SN, 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 SU100X100SN is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X100SN, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU100X100SN is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 100mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, its direct replacement is the SAU100X100SN, matching the 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, output force and SC-series mounting.
The SAU upgrade retains the compact extruded aluminum body but switches the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. It also adds the SAUF built-in-valve option. The -N NBR seal supports -20 to +70 C; choose Viton H for 150 C.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X100SN 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 SAU100X100SN produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×100 | 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.
Drives heavy stamping and forming dies using 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, ensuring robust metal deformation in automated fabrication lines.
Secures heavy structural components during machining, utilizing the 100mm bore's 7068 N thrust at 0.9 MPa for rigid, zero-shift clamping.
To replace this SU100X100SN, order the SAU100X100SN direct equivalent, verifying the 100mm bore, 100mm stroke, 1/2" port, M20x1.5 thread, and SC-series mounting. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you must upgrade your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. If you need integrated air control, explore the SAUF variant with its built-in 4M solenoid valve. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding, as cushions only decelerate.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU100X100SN is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X100SN. It shares the exact same 100mm bore, 100mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting, but requires upgrading your -S magnet sensors from the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
The 1/2" port is fixed by the 100mm bore. At 0.5 MPa it provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa push is 5497 N, and at 0.9 MPa it is 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU100X100SN replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
