This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X230, 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 SU63X230
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X230 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 230mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X230, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X230
The AirTAC SU63X230 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with a 63mm bore and 230mm stroke. It delivers 1559N push force at 0.5MPa through a 3/8 inch port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU63X230, a direct upgrade retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port size, and SC-series mounting footprint.
Buyers gain two key upgrades: the SAU accepts modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas the old line used CS1-B/DS1-B switches, and the SAUF variant offers a built-in 4M valve the SU lacked. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a sensor.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X230 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 SAU63X230 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 SU63X230 Is Used
Carton Diverting
Pushes heavy cardboard cartons at 90 degrees on a packaging line using a safe 935N working load.
Pallet Gauging
Positions empty pallets prior to stretch wrapping, utilizing the 230mm stroke to clear the conveyor.
Clamp Actuation
Secures mild steel workpieces during machining, providing reliable 1559N clamping at 0.5MPa.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X230 with the SAU63X230
To replace the SU63X230, order the SAU63X230. Confirm your 3/8 inch port thread (PT/G/NPT) and SC-series mounting hardware (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB) carry over directly. If you previously used a -S magnet version, note the sensor family changes from CS1-B/DS1-B to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG; this plain SKU cannot take a switch. For loads needing 2182N push at 0.7MPa, the 63mm bore is ideal, while a 50mm bore provides 982N if you want a smaller footprint. At 230mm stroke, ensure guide rails carry side loads to prevent rod bending. The cushion only decelerates; use a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock to hold loads. The SAUF built-in valve option is available if you need self-switching.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X230
- ✓ 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 SU63X230 FAQ
Yes, the SU63X230 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU63X230. It matches the 63mm bore, 230mm stroke, 1559N force, 3/8 inch port, and SC-series mounting accessories, so it fits the same application.
At 0.5MPa it provides 1559N push and 1402N pull; at 0.7MPa it pushes 2182N, with a theoretical max of 318kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a sensor. The SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for its -S versions.
