This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X1000, 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1000 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 1000mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU80X1000, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SU80X1000 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 80mm bore and 1000mm stroke. It delivers 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, peaking at 513kgf. The direct replacement is the SAU80X1000, matching the bore, stroke, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting. This extruded aluminium body is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. The SAU upgrade uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for -S versions and adds a SAUF built-in-valve option the SU lacked. Note that air cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock to hold loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X1000 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAU80X1000 produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×1000 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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.
Raises a 128kg mezzanine access gate using 0.5MPa air, requiring a pilot-operated check valve to prevent drifting on air loss.
Secures large automotive castings during machining, utilizing the 513kgf maximum theoretical force at 1.0MPa.
To replace the SU80X1000, order the SAU80X1000 direct: it preserves the 80mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 3/8" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. If you need position sensing, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and you must specify a magnet (-S). If you previously relied on external valves, consider the SAUF variant with its built-in 4M solenoid valve. For forces, the 80mm bore yields 2513N push at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 63mm bore gives 1559N, while an 100mm bore provides 3927N. Cushions only decelerate the piston, so fit a pilot-operated check valve or rod lock to hold a load. Finally, at 1000mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally to avoid side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SU80X1000 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU80X1000. It matches the 80mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 3/8" port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories, fitting the exact same application.
At 0.5MPa it pushes 2513N and pulls 2268N; at 0.7MPa it pushes 3518N, with a theoretical max of 513kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take a sensor; the SAU -S replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAU80X1000 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
