This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X130, 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 SU100X130
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X130 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 130mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X130, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X130
The AirTAC SU100X130 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder, delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Because this 100 mm bore unit is end-of-life, AirTAC supplies the SAU100X130 as the direct replacement. It retains the identical extruded aluminium body, 130 mm stroke, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting accessories, ensuring a seamless swap.
This non-magnetic SKU lacks a sensor groove and cannot take a switch, whereas the SAU family upgrades to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on its -S variants. The SAU line also introduces a SAUF built-in 4M valve option the SU never had. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X130 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
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 SAU100X130 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X130 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Pressing
Drives large metal stamping and riveting fixtures requiring up to 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
Pallet Handling
Indexes heavy loaded pallets on roller conveyors where the 100 mm bore provides high thrust for moving mass.
Automated Assembly
Actuates large industrial clamps and heavy-duty tooling plates on automated manufacturing lines.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X130 with the SAU100X130
To replace the discontinued SU100X130, order the SAU100X130. Verify your 1/2" port (default PT thread), M20x1.5 rod-end thread, and SC-series mounting hardware. Because this specific SKU has no magnet, it cannot accept position sensors; if you require sensing, select an SAU100X130S and use current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For sizing, the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa; if you need less force, step down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N push). Remember that air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end and do not hold load vertically on air loss—install a pilot-operated check valve or rod lock for secure positioning.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X130
- ✓ 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 SU100X130 FAQ
Yes, the SU100X130 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X130. It matches the 100 mm bore, 130 mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting, so it fits the same application without modifications.
The 1/2" port supplies air to the 100 mm bore. It generates 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 non-magnetic SKU cannot accept position sensors.
