This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X1300S, 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 SU63X1300S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1300S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 1300mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X1300S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1300S
The AirTAC SU63X1300S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63 mm bore and 1300 mm stroke. Delivering 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it features an extruded aluminum barrel and adjustable air cushions at both ends. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAU63X1300S, a direct replacement retaining the exact bore, stroke, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting.
This legacy -S magnet model relied on CS1-B/DS1-B switches, whereas the SAU successor uses the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family. The SAU line also introduces a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve, an option the original SU series never offered.

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 SAU63X1300S 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 SU63X1300S Is Used
Long-Reach Diversion
Pushes heavy cartons across a 1.3-meter conveyor lane, utilizing the 1559 N push force to overcome friction on long-stroke transfers.
Pallet Push-Off
Acts as a sweep arm to push accumulated totes onto a downstream packing line, requiring the 63 mm bore's 1402 N pull force for retraction.
Material Lowering
Lowers lightweight chassis frames into an assembly cradle, relying on adjustable end cushions to decelerate the 1300 mm descent smoothly.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1300S with the SAU63X1300S
To replace this SU63X1300S, order the SAU63X1300S. Verify your 3/8" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB) are unchanged. Because this is a -S SKU, note the sensor family changes from CS1-B/DS1-B to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG on the SAU. If sizing alternatives, the adjacent 50 mm bore yields 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air; the cushions only decelerate, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for vertical holding. At 1300 mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load damage. If valve integration is needed, consider the SAUF built-in-valve variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X1300S
- ✓ 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 SU63X1300S FAQ
Yes, the SU63X1300S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU63X1300S. It matches the 63 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting. The only change for buyers is that the -S magnet switches from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The 63 mm bore has a 3/8" air port. It generates 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, 2805 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
