This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X125-30S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X125-30S 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 SUJ100X125-30S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X125-30S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ100X125-30S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, yielding a usable 95-125 mm extension from the 125 mm nominal maximum. Built with a compact extruded aluminum profile barrel, it delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. The bore dictates a 1/2" port, a Ø25 mm piston rod, and 29 mm adjustable air cushions at each end. Operating speed spans 30-800 mm/s.
This SUJ unit is discontinued and is replaced drop-in by the SAUJ100X125-30S, which retains the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. For your sizing, a safe working load is roughly 2356 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa push figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 200 kg with a 2:1 margin. Because this is an -S model, it has a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAUJ successor upgrades to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock—external air is required to hold position.

The SAUJ100X125-30S 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.
Allows operators to fine-tune the 95-125 mm extend stroke on-site to achieve the exact seating depth for pressing bearings without swapping physical spacers.
Ideal for diverting varying package sizes on a line, where the 30 mm stroke trim adjusts the pusher reach dynamically to prevent crushing cartons.
Used in pallet handling to set precise end positions for different pallet footprints, trimming the extend stroke by up to 30 mm to accommodate load variations.
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X125-30S, order the drop-in SAUJ100X125-30S, matching the 100 mm bore, 125 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjust window, and 1/2" port. When sizing both ways, the neighboring 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N; if you need more than the 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, you must step up to a larger bore. Choose the 30 mm adjust window if your fixture tuning requires trimming the extend stroke down to 95 mm. Mounting is compatible with AirTAC SC-series FA and LB brackets. Because this is an -S model, you must upgrade your sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify your side-load limits to prevent rod binding. Remember that the stop screw sets end position and does not lock the load; use an external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ100X125-30S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X125-30S, which matches the 100 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also offers the SAUF built-in-valve variant the SU line lacked.
The double-acting single-rod cylinder delivers 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 provides a 30 mm trim window, allowing the extend stroke to be shortened from the 125 mm maximum down to 95 mm on-site. The stop sets end position but is not a load lock.
