This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X480S, 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 SU80X480S
The AirTAC Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 480mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU80X480S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480S
The AirTAC SU80X480S is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 80mm bore and 480mm stroke. The direct replacement is the SAU80X480S, matching the bore, stroke, force, 3/8 inch port, and SC-series mounting.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it originally used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; upgrading to the SAU requires current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The SAU family also introduces the SAUF variant with a built-in 4M solenoid valve, an option the SU line lacked. The extruded aluminium profile is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X480S 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 SAU80X480S 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 SU80X480S Is Used
Pallet Diversion
Pushes heavy pallets laterally across conveyor lines using the 2513N thrust at 0.5MPa, with the 480mm stroke clearing wide transport lanes.
Press Ejection
Ejects dense metal components from stamping presses, relying on adjustable 28mm air cushions to decelerate the 25mm rod smoothly at stroke ends.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480S with the SAU80X480S
To replace the SU80X480S, order the SAU80X480S direct equivalent. Confirm the 80mm bore, 480mm stroke, 3/8 inch port (default PT thread), M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. The -S magnet means you must switch from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. If sizing alternatives, a 63mm bore gives 1559N push while a 100mm bore gives 3927N at 0.5MPa. For this 480mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding. For self-switching needs, consider the SAUF valve-integrated variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X480S
- ✓ 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 SU80X480S FAQ
Yes, the SU80X480S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU80X480S. It matches the 80mm bore, 480mm stroke, 2513N push force at 0.5MPa, 3/8 inch port, and SC-series mounting. You simply order the SAU equivalent.
The 80mm bore provides 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, 3518N push at 0.7MPa, and a theoretical max of 513kgf at 1.0MPa. Because this is an -S magnet model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete; the SAU replacement uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
