This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X580, 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 SU100X580
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 580mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X580, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580
The AirTAC SU100X580 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 100mm bore and 580mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, its direct replacement is the SAU100X580, matching the 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounts. The extruded aluminum body is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. The SAU upgrade adds CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switch compatibility and a new SAUF built-in 4M valve option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X580 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 SAU100X580 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 SU100X580 Is Used
Heavy Press Ejection
Provides the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa required to eject heavy stamped metal parts from a hydraulic press bed over a 580mm travel distance.
Pallet Diverting
Acts as a heavy-duty lane diverter for loaded pallets, using the 100mm bore thrust to push goods smoothly onto adjacent conveyor lines.
Large Mold Handling
Shifts heavy injection molds into and out of processing machines, taking advantage of the 580mm stroke and compact profile body to fit tight cells.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580 with the SAU100X580
To replace the SU100X580, order the SAU100X580 direct: confirm the 100mm bore, 580mm stroke, 1/2" port, and PT/G/NPT thread choice, plus your SC-series mounting (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB). Since this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you need position detection, order the SAU100X580S and migrate to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. At 580mm, the 25mm rod is vulnerable to side-load bending—use external guides to prevent premature seal wear. For sizing both ways: dropping to an 80mm bore yields 2513 N push, while stepping up pressure to 0.7 MPa gives 5497 N. The cylinder will not hold a load without live air (cushions only decelerate), so add a pilot-operated check valve or rod lock for vertical holding. The SAUF valve-integrated variant can simplify plumbing if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X580
- ✓ 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 SU100X580 FAQ
Yes, the SU100X580 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X580. It shares the same 100mm bore, 580mm stroke, 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting accessories. The SAU body also offers a new SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU line lacked.
The 100mm bore generates 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; the SAU replacement with a magnet (-S) uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
