This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X30S, 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 SU100X30S
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X30S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X30S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X30S
The AirTAC SU100X30S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 30mm stroke. It delivers 3927N push and 3681N pull at 0.5MPa, peaking at 801kgf. The direct replacement is the SAU100X30S, matching the 1/2in port, M20x1.5 rod, and SC-series mounts.
This compact extruded-aluminium body is shorter than an ISO 15552 equivalent. The SAU upgrade keeps the physical footprint but shifts -S magnet sensors to the CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family (from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B) and adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X30S 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 SAU100X30S 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 SU100X30S Is Used
Heavy Stamping Press
Provides 3927N of thrust at 0.5MPa for actuating heavy-duty stamping and forming presses in metal fabrication lines.
Pallet Lid Press
Uses the short 30mm stroke to rapidly secure and clamp heavy pallet lids or industrial covers with high clamping force.
Injection Mold Lock
Delivers robust holding power for locking large injection molds or securing heavy industrial tooling in place.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X30S with the SAU100X30S
To replace this SU100X30S, order the SAU100X30S direct equivalent, verifying the 1/2in port, M20x1.5 thread, and SC-series mounting hardware. Because the -S magnet is present, note that your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches must change to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the SAU. If downward sizing is possible, an 80mm bore offers 2513N push at 0.5MPa; if more force is needed, you are at the maximum standard bore. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the 29mm cushions only decelerate, so add an external rod lock for held loads. The short 30mm stroke avoids rod-bending side-load issues, but for any stroke over 300mm, guide the load to prevent bending.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X30S
- ✓ 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 SU100X30S FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X30S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X30S. It shares the same 100mm bore, 30mm stroke, 1/2in port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories, so it fits the same application directly.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 3927N and pulls 3681N; at 0.7MPa it pushes 5497N, with a theoretical max of 801kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this is an -S magnet model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are retired; the SAU replacement requires the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family.
