This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X580S, 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 SU100X580S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580S 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 SAU100X580S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580S
The AirTAC SU100X580S is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder with a 100mm bore and 580mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, it features an extruded aluminum barrel, adjustable air cushions, and a 1/2" port. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAU100X580S, a direct replacement retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, port size, and SC-series mounting.
The SAU upgrade introduces current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, replacing this model's legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, and adds an optional SAUF built-in 4M valve. Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X580S 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 SAU100X580S 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 SU100X580S Is Used
Heavy Press Ejection
Provides the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa needed to eject dense stamped parts from heavy press dies over the 580mm stroke.
Pallet Lift Gates
Raises loaded pallet gates using the safe vertical lift capacity of roughly 200 kg, requiring external guides for the long rod.
Bulk Material Diversion
Swings heavy diverter arms on sorting conveyors, utilizing the 1/2" port and adjustable 29mm cushions to stop large masses smoothly.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X580S with the SAU100X580S
To replace this SU100X580S, order the SAU100X580S, confirming the 100mm bore, 580mm stroke, 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because the -S magnet is present, you must upgrade your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the SAU's CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. If you need integrated airflow control, the SAUF variant adds a built-in 4M valve the SU lacked. For sizing alternatives, a 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100mm bore reaches 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. With a 580mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to absorb side-load. The air cushion only decelerates; install a pilot-operated check valve to hold loads.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X580S
- ✓ 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 SU100X580S FAQ
Yes, the SU100X580S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU100X580S. It matches the 100mm bore, 580mm stroke, output force, 1/2" port, and SC-series mounting. You simply order the SAU100X580S, but note the sensor family changes.
This double-acting cylinder 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. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead.
