This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X160STC, 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 SU80X160STC
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160STC 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 SAU80X160STC, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160STC
The AirTAC SU80X160STC is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder featuring an 80 mm bore and 160 mm stroke. It delivers 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 25 mm piston rod and a fixed 3/8" port. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the SAU80X160STC, a direct alternative retaining the exact bore, stroke, output force, port size, and SC-series TC mounting interface.
When upgrading to the SAU80X160STC, the extruded aluminum body and adjustable 28 mm cushions remain identical, but the sensor family changes. Your original -S magnet worked with legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, whereas the SAU requires current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The SAU line also introduces a SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve that the SU never offered.

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 SAU80X160STC 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 SU80X160STC Is Used
Pallet Diversion
Executes 160 mm strokes to push heavy pallets onto adjacent conveyor lines, utilizing the 80 mm bore's 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa to overcome carton friction.
Press Ejection
Ejects formed metal components from a press bed, relying on the 28 mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 25 mm rod smoothly at cycle completion.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X160STC with the SAU80X160STC
To replace the SU80X160STC, order the SAU80X160STC and verify your 80 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 3/8" port, and M20x1.5 rod thread. Confirm the default PT port thread or specify G/NPT if modified. The TC mounting accessory is an SC-series part, so your existing bracketry bolts directly up. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, note that your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are incompatible; you must upgrade to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If your application needs a self-switching function, explore the SAUF valve-integrated variant. For sizing alternatives, dropping to a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while an 80 mm bore at 0.7 MPa provides 3518 N. Remember, a standard cylinder drifts without live air; the cushions only decelerate. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X160STC
- ✓ 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 SU80X160STC FAQ
Yes, the SU80X160STC is discontinued. The direct replacement is the AirTAC SAU80X160STC. It matches the 80 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 2513 N output force, 3/8" port, and SC-series TC mounting. You must only swap your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
This double-acting cylinder operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa) with speeds of 30-800 mm/s. Force output is 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, 4523 N at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 3/8" port and M20x1.5 rod thread.
