This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X1500S, 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 SU80X1500S
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1500S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 1500mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU80X1500S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1500S
The AirTAC SU80X1500S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an extruded aluminum barrel and a built-in piston magnet. Delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it features a 25 mm piston rod, M20x1.5 rod-end thread, and a 3/8" port. AirTAC replaced this end-of-life unit with the SAU80X1500S, a direct upgrade retaining the exact 80 mm bore, 1500 mm stroke, force class, port size, and SC-series mounting footprint.
The SAU replacement modernizes the sensor groove: your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are superseded by current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. Furthermore, the SAU line introduces the SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU family never offered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X1500S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAU80X1500S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
Model Code: Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1500S
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |

| 80 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×1500 | 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.
Where the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1500S Is Used
Long-Reach Diverting
Pushes heavy pallets across a wide conveyor belt using the full 1500 mm travel, relying on external guides to prevent rod bending.
High-Bay Extraction
Extracts totes from deep shelving racks where the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily overcomes bin weight and friction.
Large Door Actuation
Opens and closes heavy industrial machine doors, requiring an external rod lock to hold the door securely without live air.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X1500S with the SAU80X1500S
To replace this SU80X1500S, order the SAU80X1500S and verify your 3/8" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting accessories (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB) — they all carry over directly. Because this unit has the -S magnet, you must update your sensing setup: the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are incompatible with the SAU groove and require current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For force context, the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need less force, the neighboring 63 mm bore provides 1559 N, while the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. Finally, at a 1500 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-load bending — always use an external guide to prevent rod damage.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X1500S
- ✓ 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 SU80X1500S FAQ
Yes, the SU80X1500S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU80X1500S. It matches the 80 mm bore, 1500 mm stroke, 2513 N output force, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting, so no mechanical redesign is needed.
The SAU80X1500S delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a 513 kgf maximum at 1.0 MPa. Because your old SU used a -S magnet with CS1-B/DS1-B switches, you must upgrade to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the SAU replacement.
