This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X240S, 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 SU100X240S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X240S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 240mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X240S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X240S
The AirTAC SU100X240S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 240mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, its direct replacement is the SAU100X240S, retaining the same 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting compatibility.
The SAU upgrade introduces CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to replace this model's legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, and adds an optional SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve. Note that air cushions only decelerate the load; use an external rod lock to hold position.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X240S 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 SAU100X240S 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 SU100X240S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Drives heavy-duty stamping actuators, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to form thick metal components reliably.
Bulk Material Diverting
Actuates large diverting gates on high-capacity conveyors, where the 29mm adjustable cushion decelerates the substantial gate mass.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X240S with the SAU100X240S
To replace this discontinued SU100X240S, order the SAU100X240S, verifying your 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting hardware. Because this SKU includes a magnet (-S), you must upgrade your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. If you need integrated air control, the SAUF variant adds a built-in valve the original SU lacked. For loads requiring a held position without live air, add a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock, as cushions only decelerate. If downsizing, a 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa; if upscaling, the 100mm bore provides 5497 N at 0.7 MPa.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X240S
- ✓ 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 SU100X240S FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X240S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X240S, which matches the 100mm bore, 240mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories.
It delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this is a -S magnet model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches must be replaced with CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the new SAU unit.
