This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X480SLB, 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 SU80X480SLB
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480SLB 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 SAU80X480SLB, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480SLB
The AirTAC SU80X480SLB is a discontinued double-acting profile cylinder featuring an 80mm bore, 480mm stroke, and an extruded aluminum barrel. It delivers 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, with a 3/8" port and M20x1.5 rod thread. The direct replacement is the SAU80X480SLB, matching the bore, stroke, output force, port size, and SC-series LB mounting footprint exactly.
The SAU upgrade introduces CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to replace the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches used on this -S model, and adds the SAUF built-in-valve option. The compact profile body is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and retains the adjustable 28mm air cushions at both ends.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X480SLB 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 SAU80X480SLB produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| ×480 | 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 SU80X480SLB Is Used
Pallet Diversion
Pushes heavy pallets laterally across a transfer section using the 2513 N thrust class, with the LB mount stabilizing the long 480mm stroke.
Vertical Lift Gate
Raises a 128 kg material gate vertically, relying on the compact profile body to fit within tight machine frames while providing full travel.
Press Ejection
Ejects formed metal components from a press bed, utilizing the adjustable 28mm cushions to decelerate the load smoothly at stroke end.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X480SLB with the SAU80X480SLB
To replace the SU80X480SLB, order the SAU80X480SLB and verify the 3/8" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, PT thread standard, and the SC-series LB mounting interface. Because this is an -S model, note that your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches must be replaced by CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the SAU. If you need self-switching, explore the SAUF variant which integrates a 4M solenoid valve directly on the body. For sizing alternatives, dropping to a 63mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 100mm provides 3927 N. With a 480mm stroke, prevent rod bending by using an external guide to absorb side loads. A plain cylinder does not hold load without live air; the cushions only decelerate, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for vertical holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X480SLB
- ✓ 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 SU80X480SLB FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SU80X480SLB is discontinued and end-of-life. The direct replacement is the SAU80X480SLB. It matches the 80mm bore, 480mm stroke, 3/8" port, output force, and SC-series LB mounting accessories exactly, fitting the same application.
The bore delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because this is an -S magnet model, the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches are obsolete; the SAU replacement uses the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family.
