This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X1500TC, 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 SU63X1500TC
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500TC 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 SAU63X1500TC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500TC
The AirTAC SU63X1500TC is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder featuring a 63mm bore, 1500mm stroke, and a 3/8 inch port. Delivering 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is replaced directly by the SAU63X1500TC direct equivalent. This upgrade retains the exact bore, stroke, output force, port size, and SC-series TC mounting interface, ensuring a seamless swap.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a position sensor. If sensing is needed, the SAU successor accommodates modern CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches via its groove, whereas the legacy SU required CS1-B or DS1-B reed switches. The SAU family also introduces the SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve, an option the original SU line 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 SAU63X1500TC 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 SU63X1500TC Is Used
Long-Reach Transfer
Pushes heavy pallets across a 1.5-meter conveyor gap using 1559 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, guided externally to prevent rod bending.
High-Bay Extraction
Extracts totes from deep shelving racks, requiring the full 1500mm extension and a TC mount to clear structural supports.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X1500TC with the SAU63X1500TC
To replace the discontinued SU63X1500TC, order the SAU63X1500TC and verify the 63mm bore, 1500mm stroke, 3/8 inch port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and TC mounting accessory. If you need position sensing, note that this original non-magnetic SKU cannot support switches, but the SAU replacement uses CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors instead of the old CS1-B or DS1-B models. When sizing, neighboring bores offer alternatives: a 50mm bore provides 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80mm bore yields 2513 N. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air, as the cushion only decelerates; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure holding. Finally, at 1500mm, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending, so an external guide is mandatory to prevent side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X1500TC
- ✓ 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 SU63X1500TC FAQ
Yes, the SU63X1500TC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X1500TC, which shares the identical 63mm bore, 1500mm stroke, 3/8 inch port, and TC mounting.
It delivers 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept sensors; the SAU replacement uses CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
