This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X135, 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 SU100X135
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 135mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X135, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135
The AirTAC SU100X135 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 135mm stroke. It delivers 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 1/2 inch port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU100X135, a direct alternative retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, and SC-series mounting footprint.
This compact extruded aluminum body is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The SAU upgrade introduces current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and a SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve option the SU line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X135 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 SAU100X135 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 SU100X135 Is Used
Heavy Press Clamping
Secures large metal castings in hydraulic press fixtures, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to hold components firmly during machining operations.
Pallet Diverting
Actuates heavy-duty routing gates on automated packaging lines, easily handling the side-load of full pallets moving at moderate speeds.
Large Crate Ejection
Pushes finished goods crates from accumulation rollers onto outbound shipping conveyors with reliable 135mm stroke displacement.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135 with the SAU100X135
To replace the SU100X135, order the SAU100X135 direct equivalent, verifying the 100mm bore, 135mm stroke, 1/2 inch port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because this SKU lacks a magnet (-S), it cannot accept a magnetic sensor; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if sensing is later required. If sizing neighbors, the 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100mm bore provides 3927 N. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads. The SAUF valve-integrated variant is available if self-switching is needed.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X135
- ✓ 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 SU100X135 FAQ
Yes, the SU100X135 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X135, which matches the 100mm bore, 135mm stroke, 1/2 inch port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories.
It 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. This specific SKU has no magnet (-S), so it cannot take a sensor; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
