This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X215, 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 SU63X215
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X215 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 215mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X215, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X215
The AirTAC SU63X215 is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 215mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa via a 3/8" port. The direct replacement is the SAU63X215, which preserves the exact bore, stroke, force, port size, and SC-series mounting.
This extruded aluminium profile body is more compact than an ISO 15552 equivalent. The SAU upgrade introduces CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and a SAUF built-in-valve option the SU lacked. As a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept switches, and the cushion only decelerates; it will not hold a load without air.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X215 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 SAU63X215 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 SU63X215 Is Used
Package Diverting
Actuates routing gates on packaging lines where the 1559N thrust easily deflects heavy cartons.
Clamping Fixtures
Secures workpieces during machining, using the 1402N pull force to maintain grip against vibration.
Pallet Stops
Functions as a pneumatic stop for roller conveyors, halting pallets up to the 79kg safe lift capacity.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X215 with the SAU63X215
To replace this discontinued SU63X215, order the SAU63X215. Verify your 3/8" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounts (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB), which all carry over directly. Because this is a non-S SKU, it lacks a magnet and cannot support position sensing. If you need sensing, the SAU replacement requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For loads needing holding on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the adjustable cushions only decelerate. Since the 215mm stroke exceeds standard increments, it is a nonstandard stroke; ensure side-load guidance to prevent rod bending. If downsizing, a 50mm bore gives 982N push at 0.5MPa; if upsizing, an 80mm bore provides 2513N.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X215
- ✓ 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 SU63X215 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU63X215 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X215. It offers identical 63mm bore, 215mm stroke, 1559N force at 0.5MPa, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting compatibility, so it fits the same application directly.
It is a double-acting cylinder with a 20mm rod, M16x1.5 thread, and 21mm adjustable cushions. Forces are 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N at 0.7MPa, and 318kgf max at 1.0MPa. This specific SKU has no magnet (-S) and cannot take sensors; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if sensing is added.
