This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X160, 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 SU80X160
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 160mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU80X160, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160
The AirTAC SU80X160 is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 80mm bore and 160mm stroke. Delivering 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, its extruded aluminum barrel makes it more compact than an ISO 15552 unit of the same size. AirTAC replaced this with the SAU80X160, a direct sharing the exact bore, stroke, 3/8" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. The SAU upgrade also switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for its -S variants and adds the SAUF built-in-valve option the SU line never had.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X160 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 SAU80X160 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 SU80X160 Is Used
Clamp Actuation
Provides 2513N of secure clamping force at 0.5MPa for holding heavy steel fabrications during automated welding or machining processes.
Package Diverting
Drives robust routing gates on high-throughput material handling lines, easily moving heavy pallets with its 160mm stroke.
Pallet Lift Stops
Acts as a heavy-duty end-stop or positioning pin in conveyor transfer zones, safely absorbing kinetic energy via its adjustable cushions.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160 with the SAU80X160
To replace this SU80X160, order the SAU80X160. Verify your 3/8" port thread (PT, G, or NPT) and SC-series mounting (LB, FA, FB, CA, CB). Since this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you need position detection on the SAU, order the -S version and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. If you need self-switching, the SAUF variant integrates a 4M valve. For loads needing 3518N at 0.7MPa, this 80mm bore fits, but if you need less force, a 63mm bore offers 1559N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the 28mm cushions only decelerate—so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X160
- ✓ 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 SU80X160 FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU80X160 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU80X160. It shares the identical 80mm bore, 160mm stroke, 2513N output force, 3/8" port, and SC-series mounting accessories, so it fits the same application without mechanical changes.
It delivers 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, 3518N push at 0.7MPa, and a theoretical max of 513kgf at 1.0MPa. This specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept a sensor. If you need sensing on the SAU replacement, order the -S version which uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the old CS1-B/DS1-B.
