This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X450TC, 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 SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X450TC is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 450mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X450TC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU100X450TC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 450mm stroke. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, it is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore while sharing AirTAC SC-series mounting accessories. It delivers a push force of 3927 N and pull of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 1/2" port and a 25mm piston rod with M20x1.5 threading.
The direct replacement is the SAU100X450TC, which preserves the exact bore, stroke, output force, 1/2" port, and TC mounting interface. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; furthermore, the SAU upgrade transitions to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for sensing variants and introduces the SAUF built-in valve option the SU line never had.

| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAU100X450TC 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.
Drives heavy stamping and forming dies requiring substantial thrust, leveraging the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shape thick materials reliably.
Actuates large diverter arms on high-capacity conveyor lines, utilizing the 450mm stroke to redirect heavy packages across wide belts.
To replace this discontinued SU100X450TC, order the SAU100X450TC, verifying your 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and TC mounting accessory are retained. Since this specific SKU has no magnet (-S), it cannot support a sensor; if sensing is required, an SAU equivalent with a magnet uses the modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family rather than the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. If downsizing, the 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa; if upsizing is needed, this 100mm bore already provides 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads. Finally, the 450mm stroke necessitates external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SU100X450TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X450TC, which matches the 100mm bore, 450mm stroke, 1/2" port, force, and TC mounting. You simply order the SAU equivalent.
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 specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; SAU sensing variants use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU100X450TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
