This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X1000TC, 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.

The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1000TC is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 1000mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X1000TC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU63X1000TC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63mm bore and 1000mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, operating via a 3/8" port. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAU63X1000TC, a direct replacement retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port size, and SC-series TC mounting interface.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept position sensors. The SAU upgrade also transitions to modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for sensing variants, and introduces the SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve option the SU line never had.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X1000TC carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAU63X1000TC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×1000 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -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.
Pushes heavy pallets along a 1-meter conveyor section using 1559N of thrust at 0.5MPa, relying on external guides to prevent rod bending over the extended length.
Indexes large automotive components into machining fixtures, taking advantage of the compact extruded profile to save space in tight cells.
To replace this discontinued SU63X1000TC, order the SAU63X1000TC direct equivalent, verifying the 3/8" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and TC mounting are retained. If downsizing, a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa; if upsizing, an 80mm bore provides 2513N. Note that this non-magnetic SKU cannot support sensors, whereas SAU -S variants use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. A plain cylinder drifts without live air—the cushions only decelerate—so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. At 1000mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SU63X1000TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X1000TC. It shares the identical 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, output force, 3/8" port, and TC mounting, so it fits the same application without mechanical modifications.
This double-acting cylinder pushes 1559N and pulls 1402N at 0.5MPa, pushes 2182N at 0.7MPa, and reaches a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept position switches; SAU equivalents with -S use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU63X1000TC replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
