This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X135S, 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 SU100X135S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135S 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 SAU100X135S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135S
The AirTAC SU100X135S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 135mm stroke. Delivering 3927N push force at 0.5MPa, its direct replacement is the SAU100X135S, retaining the same body dimensions, 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread and SC-series mounting.
This extruded aluminium profile is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. Note the -S magnet used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAU successor requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and the SAUF variant adds a built-in valve the SU lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X135S 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 SAU100X135S 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 SU100X135S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Drives heavy tooling in automated stamping lines, utilising the 3927N thrust at 0.5MPa to form thick metal blanks reliably.
Pallet Reject Arm
Pushes misaligned pallets off high-speed conveyors, handling substantial mass with a safe 2356N working load margin.
Injection Mould Eject
Ejects dense plastic parts from large injection moulding machines, benefiting from the compact profile body to fit tight cells.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X135S with the SAU100X135S
To replace this SU100X135S, order the SAU100X135S ensuring your 1/2" port thread (PT/G/NPT) and SC-series mounting match. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, prepare to upgrade your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. If sizing neighbours, a 80mm bore yields 2513N push at 0.5MPa, whereas this 100mm bore achieves 3927N. The 135mm stroke is standard, but always guide side loads to prevent rod bending. For loads that must resist gravity on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as cushions only decelerate. The SAUF valve-integrated option can simplify cycling if needed.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X135S
- ✓ 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 SU100X135S FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X135S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X135S. It matches the 100mm bore, 135mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force and SC-series mounting, but uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the old CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
The 1/2" port bore delivers 3927N push and 3681N pull at 0.5MPa, 5497N push at 0.7MPa, 7068N at 0.9MPa, and a theoretical max of 801kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating speed is 30-800mm/s. Note the cylinder does not hold load without live air; use an external rod lock for vertical holding.
