This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAU80X500N, 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 SU80X500N
The AirTAC SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X500N is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 500mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAU80X500N, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X500N
The AirTAC SU80X500N is a discontinued double-acting profile-type cylinder with an 80mm bore and 500mm stroke. It delivers 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa via a 3/8" port. The direct replacement is the SAU80X500N, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series mounting. The extruded aluminum profile is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This NBR-sealed unit operates from -20 to +70C. Because it lacks a magnet (-S), it cannot accept a sensor; the SAU replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if sensing is needed. The SAU line also adds a SAUF valve-integrated option the SU lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAU80X500N 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 SAU80X500N 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 SU80X500N Is Used
Pallet Diversion
Pushes heavy pallets off a main conveyor line utilizing the 2513N push force at 0.5MPa, with the 500mm stroke clearing the belt width entirely.
Material Ejection
Ejects molded parts from a press area, using the adjustable 28mm air cushions at both ends to decelerate the 80mm piston smoothly at stroke ends.
Replacing the Airtac SU63-100 Standard Cylinder SU80X500N with the SAU80X500N
To replace this discontinued SU80X500N, order the SAU80X500N. Confirm the 80mm bore, 500mm stroke, 3/8" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and SC-series mounting. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take a switch; if you need sensing on the SAU, order an -S model and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For sizing, the 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa, while the 100mm bore yields 3927N. A plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as cushions only decelerate. At 500mm stroke, prevent rod bending by guiding the load externally. The SAUF variant offers a built-in valve if needed.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAU80X500N
- ✓ 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 SU80X500N FAQ
Yes, the SU80X500N is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAU80X500N, which shares the same 80mm bore, 500mm stroke, 3/8" port, output force, and SC-series mounting accessories.
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 sensing is required on the SAU replacement, order an -S model and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
