This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X150SH, 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 SU63X150SH
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X150SH is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X150SH, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X150SH
The AirTAC SU63X150SH is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63mm bore and 150mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa. AirTAC replaced this unit with the SAU63X150SH, a direct upgrade retaining the exact 3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. The extruded aluminum body is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This specific SKU includes a piston magnet (-S) for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches and a Viton H high-temperature seal (-H) rated for 0 to 150C. The SAU replacement upgrades the sensor groove to accept current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches, and introduces the SAUF valve-integrated option the SU line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X150SH 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 SAU63X150SH 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 SU63X150SH Is Used
Hot End Ejection
Actuating part ejection arms near 150C injection mold gates using the high-temp Viton H seal to prevent premature rubber degradation.
Heavy Divert Arm
Driving a pneumatic diverting gate on a packaging line where the 1559N thrust at 0.5MPa easily overcomes carton friction.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X150SH with the SAU63X150SH
To replace this SU63X150SH, order the SAU63X150SH. Verify your 3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting accessories, which all carry over directly. Because this SKU has the -S magnet, note that your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches must change to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the new SAU body. The -H Viton seal handles 150C environments. If sizing alternatives, a 50mm bore yields 982N push at 0.5MPa, while an 80mm bore provides 2513N. 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. For higher flow control, explore the SAUF built-in 4M solenoid valve variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X150SH
- ✓ 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 SU63X150SH FAQ
Yes, the SU63X150SH is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X150SH. It matches the 63mm bore, 150mm stroke, 3/8 port, output force, and SC-series mounting. You simply order the SAU equivalent.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 1559N and pulls 1402N. Push is 2182N at 0.7MPa, 2805N at 0.9MPa, with a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this SKU has a magnet (-S), note the SAU replacement requires upgrading from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
