This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X205, 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 SU100X205
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X205 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 205mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X205, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X205
The AirTAC SU100X205 is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 205mm stroke. Delivering 3927N push force at 0.5MPa, its direct replacement is the SAU100X205, retaining the same 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread and SC-series mounting. The extruded aluminium body is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. The SAU upgrade also introduces the SAUF built-in-valve option and uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for -S variants. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; use a rod lock for holding.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X205 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 SAU100X205 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 SU100X205 Is Used
Heavy Press Ejection
Provides the 3927N push force at 0.5MPa needed to reliably eject dense stamped metal components from a hydraulic press bed.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a robust 205mm stroke barrier to halt heavy loaded pallets on a conveyor line before indexing into the wrapping station.
Mold Clamp Actuation
Drives a 100mm bore clamping arm to secure large injection molds, utilizing the compact profile body to fit tight machine envelopes.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X205 with the SAU100X205
To replace the SU100X205, order the SAU100X205 with the same 205mm stroke, 100mm bore, 1/2" port, M20x1.5 thread and SC mounting. Since this non-magnetic SKU cannot take a sensor, no switch migration is needed now, but if you ever required position sensing, the SAU uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. Sizing both ways: dropping to an 80mm bore yields 2513N [email protected], while stepping up is unnecessary given the 801kgf max at 1.0MPa. For load holding, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the 29mm adjustable cushions only decelerate. The SAUF valve-integrated variant is available if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X205
- ✓ 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 SU100X205 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X205 is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAU100X205. It shares the identical 100mm bore, 205mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force and SC-series mounting, so it fits the same application directly.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 3927N and pulls 3681N; at 0.7MPa it pushes 5497N, and the theoretical max is 801kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a sensor. If you need sensing on the SAU replacement, it uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches rather than the older CS1-B/DS1-B family.
