This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X60, 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 SU100X60
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X60 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 60mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X60, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X60
The AirTAC SU100X60 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 60mm stroke. It delivers a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty handling. AirTAC ended the SU line, so the direct replacement is the SAU100X60. It shares the same extruded aluminum body, 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting accessories, ensuring a seamless physical swap.
This non-magnet SKU cannot accept a sensor. If you previously used an SU-S model, note the SAU upgrade transitions from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The SAU family also introduces a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve the SU lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU100X60 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 SAU100X60 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 SU100X60 Is Used
Heavy Stamping Ejection
Provides the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa needed to eject thick metal blanks from stamping presses reliably.
Pallet Disruption
Breaks apart tightly jammed pallet loads at depalletizing stations using its 200 kg safe vertical lift capacity.
Mold Clamping
Secures heavy industrial molds in place during low-stroke injection molding setup operations.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X60 with the SAU100X60
To replace the discontinued SU100X60, order the SAU100X60. Verify your 1/2" port thread (PT, G, or NPT) and SC-series mounting (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC). Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if sensing is needed, order an SAU100X60-S and upgrade to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For sizing both ways: dropping to an 80mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 100mm bore provides 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. A plain cylinder drifts without live air—the cushion only decelerates—so use an external rod lock for held loads. For high-cycle automation, consider the SAUF valve-integrated variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X60
- ✓ 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 SU100X60 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU100X60 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X60. It matches the 100mm bore, 60mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting, so it fits the same application without modifications.
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 3927 N and pulls 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 5497 N, and the theoretical max is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cushion only decelerates; it does not hold a load on air loss, so use an external rod lock for holding.
