This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X220, 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X220 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 220mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X220, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU100X220 is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 220 mm stroke. It delivers a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing an extruded aluminum barrel that is more compact than a same-bore ISO 15552 unit. AirTAC replaced this end-of-line model with the SAU100X220 direct replacement, preserving the exact stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting compatibility.
This non-magnet SKU cannot accept a sensor, whereas the SAU upgrade supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The SAU family also introduces the SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve option, a self-switching feature the SU line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X220 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAU100X220 produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×220 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -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.
Ideal for driving heavy stamping dies, utilizing the 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa to form thick metal components reliably.
Lifts loaded pallets up to the 200 kg vertical-lift threshold, moving goods between conveyor lines with stable 220 mm travel.
Secures large workpieces during CNC machining, providing the rigid 100 mm bore holding power needed for heavy milling.
To replace this discontinued SU100X220, order the SAU100X220 direct equivalent, verifying the 100 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, M20x1.5 rod thread, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting. Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S), it cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; if sensing is needed, the SAU replacement requires the newer CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. When sizing, neighboring bores offer alternatives: an 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore hits 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air—the 29 mm cushions only decelerate—so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads. For applications needing integrated control, explore the SAUF variant with its built-in valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X220 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X220. It matches the 100 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting, so it fits the same application without modifications.
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. Because this non-S SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a sensor; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU100X220 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
