This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X150, 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 SU100X150
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X150 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X150, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X150
The AirTAC SU100X150 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 150mm stroke. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, it is more compact than an ISO 15552 unit of the same bore while delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this end-of-line model with the SAU100X150, a direct upgrade retaining the exact 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, 29mm cushions and SC-series mounting.
Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a position sensor. If sensing is required, the SAU100X150 successor uses modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches (the SU line relied on legacy CS1-B/DS1-B parts). The SAU family also introduces a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve, an option the original SU series never offered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X150 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 SAU100X150 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 SU100X150 Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Drives heavy stamping and forming dies, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shape thick metal components reliably.
Automated Clamp System
Secures large workpieces on machining centers, using the compact profile body to save space while delivering massive clamping pressure.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X150 with the SAU100X150
To replace the SU100X150, order the SAU100X150 direct equivalent, verifying your 1/2" port thread (PT, G or NPT) and SC-series mounting brackets (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB). This non-magnetic SKU cannot support switches; if you need sensing, select an SAU100X150-S and upgrade to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For loads approaching the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, a smaller 80mm bore provides 2513 N, while this 100mm bore reaches 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Note that a standard cylinder drifts without live air—the cushions only decelerate—so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding. At 150mm stroke, rod bending is minimal, but always guide the load to prevent side-loading.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X150
- ✓ 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 SU100X150 FAQ
Yes, the SU100X150 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X150, which matches the 100mm bore, 150mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories. You can install it directly into your existing fixture.
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N, reaching 5497 N at 0.7 MPa and a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take a sensor; the SAU replacement with a magnet (-S) uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
