This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU63X880S, 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 SU63X880S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X880S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 880mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU63X880S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X880S
The AirTAC SU63X880S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 880 mm stroke and 63 mm bore. It delivers 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 3/8" port. The direct replacement is the SAU63X880S, matching the body, stroke, force, port and SC-series mounting.
This extruded aluminium profile is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The -S magnet on this legacy unit worked with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, whereas the SAU replacement uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU63X880S 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 SAU63X880S 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 SU63X880S Is Used
Long-Stroke Diversion
Pushes heavy pallets sideways across a transfer line using the full 880 mm travel and 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Vertical Material Lift
Raises 79 kg tote bins to an overhead conveyor, relying on the 63 mm bore and external linear guides to prevent rod bending.
Multi-Stage Ejection
Clears finished machined parts from a press bed over an extended 880 mm distance before retracting into a compact profile body.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU63X880S with the SAU63X880S
To replace this SU63X880S, order the SAU63X880S. Confirm the 63 mm bore, 880 mm stroke, 3/8" port, M16x1.5 rod thread and SC-series mounting. The -S magnet means you must upgrade from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If sizing either way, a 50 mm bore gives 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads. At 880 mm, prevent rod bending by supporting the load with external guides. The SAUF variant adds a built-in 4M valve the SU lacked.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU63X880S
- ✓ 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 SU63X880S FAQ
Yes, the SU63X880S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU63X880S. It matches the 63 mm bore, 880 mm stroke, 318 kgf max force, 3/8" port and SC-series mounting. The SAU body is identical, but the -S magnet requires upgrading to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the old CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
The 63 mm bore provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s. The cylinder uses a 3/8" port, a 20 mm rod, and adjustable 21 mm cushions at both ends.
