This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X230, 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 SU100X230
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X230 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 230mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X230, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X230
The AirTAC SU100X230 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 230mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it uses an extruded aluminum barrel making it more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same size. AirTAC replaced this unit with the SAU100X230 direct replacement, retaining the exact 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting compatibility.
This specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and therefore cannot accept a magnetic switch. If sensing is needed on the SAU100X230 upgrade, note that the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are replaced by the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. The SAU line also introduces a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU series never offered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X230 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 SAU100X230 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 SU100X230 Is Used
Heavy Stamp Pressing
Ideal for driving heavy stamping dies and forming tools where the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa ensures consistent deformation of metal components.
Bulk Material Diverting
Provides robust actuation for heavy-duty conveyor diverters and sorting gates, benefiting from the 1/2" port for rapid cycle times.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X230 with the SAU100X230
To replace the SU100X230, order the SAU100X230 direct equivalent to keep the 100mm bore, 230mm stroke, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting identical. Verify your thread standard (PT, G, or NPT) and mounting accessory type (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC, TCM1) before ordering. Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot support sensors; if you need position detection, add the -S option to the SAU order and migrate to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For sizing alternatives, dropping to a 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while pushing to 0.7 MPa on this 100mm bore provides 5497 N. A plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss—the 29mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke ends—so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. Since the stroke is 230mm, ensure adequate guidance to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X230
- ✓ 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 SU100X230 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X230 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X230. It matches the 100mm bore, 230mm stroke, 7068 N force at 0.9 MPa, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting accessories perfectly.
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 5497 N, with a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take a sensor. The SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if the -S option is added.
