This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X115, 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 Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X115 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 115mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X115, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU100X115 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 115mm stroke. It delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa through a 1/2 inch port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU100X115, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, and SC-series mounting footprint.
This non-magnetic SKU lacks a sensor groove and cannot accept switches, whereas the SAU upgrade supports modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The extruded aluminum body is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAU100X115 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.
Drives heavy-duty stamping and forming dies requiring substantial thrust, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shape thick metal components reliably.
Actuates large-scale diverting gates on high-capacity conveyor lines, moving heavy bulk material flows with robust 100mm bore power and adjustable cushions.
To replace this discontinued SU100X115, order the SAU100X115 direct equivalent, confirming the 100mm bore, 115mm stroke, 1/2 inch port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because this specific SKU has no magnet (-S), it cannot support position sensing; if you require switches on the new SAU, you must select the -S option and migrate to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B types. For heavy loads, note that a standard cylinder drifts without live air—the cushion only decelerates—so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding. If sizing alternatives, a neighboring 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while this 100mm bore reaches 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. The SAU family also offers a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve for self-switching, an option the SU line never had.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X115 is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAU100X115. It provides identical bore, stroke, force, 1/2 inch port, and SC-series mounting compatibility, so it bolts right into the same application.
This double-acting cylinder 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. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, meaning it cannot accept sensors; the SAU replacement with the -S option uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU100X115 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
