This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU100X950S, 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 SU100X950S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X950S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 950mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU100X950S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X950S
The AirTAC SU100X950S is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 950 mm stroke. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features an extruded aluminum barrel and adjustable cushions. The direct replacement is the SAU100X950S, matching the bore, stroke, 1/2 inch port, and SC-series mounts.
The SAU upgrade switches the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches and adds the SAUF built-in valve option. The 950 mm stroke requires external guides to prevent rod bending.

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 SAU100X950S 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 SU100X950S Is Used
Pallet Diverting
Pushes heavy loaded pallets along transfer lines, relying on the 3927 N thrust at 0.5 MPa for reliable actuation.
Automated Storage Retrieval
Drives large vertical lift doors on ASRS units, requiring a pilot-operated check valve to hold loads securely.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU100X950S with the SAU100X950S
To replace this SU100X950S, order the SAU100X950S direct equivalent, verifying the 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. Because this SKU includes a magnet (-S), note the sensor family changes from CS1-B/DS1-B to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. For sizing alternatives, a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; dropping to an 80 mm bore reduces push to 2513 N. The air cushion only decelerates the load, so for load holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. At 950 mm, ensure external guides are used to prevent side-load and rod-bending issues.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU100X950S
- ✓ 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 SU100X950S FAQ
Yes, the SU100X950S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU100X950S, which maintains the same 100 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, 1/2" port, output force, and SC-series mounting compatibility.
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. The -S magnet on this legacy model worked with CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAU replacement requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
