This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X120-75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X120-75 in place of this model. 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X120-75 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 120mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X120-75, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ100X120-75 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, yielding a usable 45 to 120 mm extend out of the 120 mm nominal maximum. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; a plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads. This 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, and carries a 1/2 inch port with a 25 mm rod.
This SUJ unit is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X120-75, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrade adopts current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this legacy model used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a magnetic switch. For sizing, the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa implies a safe working load of roughly 2356 N (about 60 percent of the figure) and a vertical lift capacity near 200 kg with a 2:1 margin.

The SAUJ100X120-75 produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. 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.
Dial in the exact extend contact point on assemblies that vary slightly in height, using the stop screw to trim up to 75 mm off the 120 mm maximum stroke.
Set precise divert distances on a conveyor line where product widths change, relying on the 1/2 inch port and 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa to move loads reliably.
Establish a hard mechanical end position for pallet stops that must be reconfigured on the floor without changing the entire cylinder mount.
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X120-75, order the SAUJ100X120-75; it is a true drop-in for bore, 120 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust window, 1/2 inch port, and FA/LB mounting. If you need to size both ways, the neighbouring 80 mm bore gives 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while this 100 mm bore gives 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). Choose the 75 mm adjust window when you need on-site tuning of the extend stroke from 45 to 120 mm; the external stop sets end position but is not a lock. This non-magnetic SKU cannot take a sensor, but if you switch to a -S SAUJ, note that sensors change from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent rod bearing wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ100X120-75 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X120-75, which matches the 100 mm bore, 120 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust window, 1/2 inch port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
The 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, with a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 45 to 120 mm. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
