This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X15-10 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X15-10 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.
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 15mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X15-10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10
The AirTAC SUJ100X15-10 is a discontinued double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable 5-15 mm stroke from the 15 mm nominal maximum. This 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, peaking at 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. The 1/2" port and M20x1.5 rod end handle high flow, while the 29 mm adjustable air cushions decelerate heavy loads. The stop screw sets the end position; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock for held loads.
Because the SUJ line is end-of-life, the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X15-10, matching the bore, stroke, force, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. This non-magnetic SKU cannot take a switch. A computed buyer insight: the safe working load is roughly 2356 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), allowing a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The SAUJ upgrade switches legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG types and adds an SAUF built-in-valve variant the SU line lacked.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ100X15-10 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAUJ100X15-10 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.
Where the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10 Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Provides high clamping force in tight fixtures where the exact 5-15 mm extend contact point must be dialed in on-site.
Press Fit Insertion
Delivers 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa for seating bearings, with the stop screw allowing precise bottoming adjustment without re-machining stops.
Transfer Diverter
Short actuation for routing products on a conveyor, letting operators tweak the 15 mm extend length to accommodate varying package sizes.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10 with the SAUJ100X15-10
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X15-10, order the SAUJ100X15-10 for identical 100 mm bore, 15 mm stroke, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. Size both ways using 0.5 MPa forces: the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push, while this 100 mm bore yields 3927 N. Choose the 10 mm adjust window when you need field tuning of a short extend stroke; for longer trims, step up the adjust figure. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; the SAUJ upgrade path uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. Since the 15 mm stroke is under 300 mm, side-load leverage is minimal. Remember the stop screw only sets end position—it is not a lock—so specify an external rod lock for pneumatic load holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X15-10
- ✓ 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 SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X15-10 FAQ
Yes, the SUJ100X15-10 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X15-10, which matches the 100 mm bore, 15 mm stroke, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
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 at 0.9 MPa. The external stop screw window is 10 mm, allowing you to trim the 15 mm nominal extend stroke down to 5 mm on-site. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
