This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUD32X60, 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 SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60
The AirTAC Airtac SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUD32X60, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60
The AirTAC SUD32X60 is a double-acting, double-rod profile cylinder that is officially discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUD32X60, matching the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, 1/8 inch port, and mounting. A rod exits both ends on one piston, meaning push and pull force are equal at 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. The extruded aluminum profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, this design offers anti-rotation stability and can drive two tools simultaneously. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor, whereas the SAUD replacement uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors (this legacy model used CS1-B/DS1-B).

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUD32X60 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The SAUD32X60 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 SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60 Is Used
Dual-Tool Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 345 N force at 0.5 MPa, ensuring perfectly synchronized part processing.
Anti-Rotation Transfer
Moves parts along a conveyor without rotational drift, leveraging the dual-rod guidance to maintain strict alignment.
Compact Ejector
Ejects workpieces from both sides of a fixture in tight spaces where a standard ISO cylinder body would be too long.
Replacing the Airtac SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60 with the SAUD32X60
To replace the discontinued SUD32X60, order the SAUD32X60 direct: insert an A after the leading S, keeping the bore, stroke, and 1/8 inch port identical. Size both ways by checking neighbor bores while verifying equal both-ways force. Choose a double-rod when you need anti-rotation or to drive two tools. Mounting is Basic, FA, or LB only (SC-series compatibility). This non-magnet SKU cannot take a switch; the SAUD uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For strokes >=300, confirm side-load limits. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates, so use an external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUD32X60
- ✓ 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 SUD Series Double Rod Cylinder SUD32X60 FAQ
Yes, the SUD32X60 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUD32X60. You simply insert an A after the leading S. The SAUD matches the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, 1/8 inch port, and mounting, but uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
