This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X100, 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 SU63X100
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X100 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 100mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X100, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X100
The AirTAC SU63X100 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63mm bore and 100mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa via a 3/8" port. The direct replacement is the SAU63X100, matching the body, stroke, force, and SC-series mounting.
This compact extruded-aluminium barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 equivalent. Being a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept sensors. The SAU upgrade switches to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches and adds a SAUF valve-integrated option.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X100 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAU63X100 produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 SU63X100 Is Used
Carton Diverting
Pushes packages at 30-800 mm/s on packaging lines, using the 1559N thrust to redirect heavy goods without overshoot.
Clamp Actuation
Secures workpieces during machining, providing a firm 1402N pull at 0.5MPa to hold components against cutting forces.
Pallet Stopper
Halts pallets on roller conveyors, absorbing kinetic energy via the 21mm adjustable air cushions at both ends.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X100 with the SAU63X100
To replace this discontinued SU63X100, order the SAU63X100 keeping the 63mm bore, 100mm stroke, M16x1.5 rod thread, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounts. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor; if sensing is needed, specify an SAU -S model and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For higher loads, an 80mm bore gives 2513N push at 0.5MPa; for lighter duties, a 50mm bore gives 982N. The cylinder will not hold a load without air; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding, as cushions only decelerate. The SAUF variant integrates a 4M valve if needed.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X100
- ✓ 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 SU63X100 FAQ
Yes, the SU63X100 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU63X100. It shares the exact same 63mm bore, 100mm stroke, 3/8" port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories, so it fits the same application.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 1559N and pulls 1402N; at 0.7MPa it pushes 2182N, with a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific non-magnet SKU cannot accept a sensor. If you need position sensing, order the SAU replacement with the -S option, which uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
