This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X1500STC, 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 SU63X1500STC
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500STC is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 1500mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X1500STC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500STC
The AirTAC SU63X1500STC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63mm bore and 1500mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa via a 3/8 inch port. AirTAC replaced this unit with the SAU63X1500STC, a direct replacement retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, port size and SC-series TC mounting interface.
The SAU upgrade introduces CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, superseding the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches used on this -S model. The SAU line also adds a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve. Note that plain cylinders drift without live air; use an external rod lock for holding.

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 SAU63X1500STC produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×1500 | 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.
Where the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500STC Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
Pushes heavy pallets 1500mm between conveyor lines using 1559N thrust at 0.5MPa, requiring external guides to prevent rod bending over the extended length.
Large-Part Ejection
Clears substantial molded components from press beds, utilizing the TC mount for secure body support and the adjustable 21mm cushions to brake the 1500mm travel.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500STC with the SAU63X1500STC
To replace this SU63X1500STC, order the SAU63X1500STC. Verify the 63mm bore, 1500mm stroke, 3/8 inch port, M16x1.5 rod thread and TC mounting. Because this unit has the -S magnet, you must switch from CS1-B/DS1-B switches to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If neighbours are needed, a 50mm bore gives 982N push while an 80mm bore yields 2513N at 0.5MPa. At 1500mm, avoid rod bending by adding external guides to absorb side loads. For load holding on air loss, install a pilot-operated check valve or rod lock, as cushions only decelerate. The SAUF valve-integrated option is available if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X1500STC
- ✓ 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 SU63X1500STC FAQ
Yes, the SU63X1500STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X1500STC. It matches the 63mm bore, 1500mm stroke, 1559N force, 3/8 inch port and TC mounting. You simply order the SAU equivalent.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 1559N and pulls 1402N. Push is 2182N at 0.7MPa and 2805N at 0.9MPa, with a 318kgf max at 1.0MPa. Because this is an -S model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete; the SAU replacement requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
