This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ100X160-10, 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 SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-10
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-10
The AirTAC SUJ100X160-10 is a double-acting double-rod adjustable-stroke profile cylinder, now discontinued. Its external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable 150-160 mm stroke. The nominal 160 mm is the maximum. It features a 1/2" port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 29 mm adjustable cushions.
The direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-10, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrades to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this legacy SUJ used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a magnetic switch. Note the stop screw sets end position only; it is not a load lock.

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 SAUJ100X160-10 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 SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-10 Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site allows operators to dial in the exact bottoming position for delicate press-fit operations without re-engineering the entire fixture.
Variable Height Sealing
Adjusting the extend endpoint on the fly accommodates varying package heights on a sealing head, ensuring consistent contact pressure across different product runs.
End-Stop Positioning
A 10 mm external stop window provides fine-tuning for a pneumatic end-stop gate, letting maintenance shift the contact point slightly without changing out the cylinder body.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-10 with the SAUJ100X160-10
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X160-10, select the SAUJ100X160-10 direct equivalent, preserving the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 10 mm adjust window when you need precise field tuning of the extend end-position. Since this SKU has no magnet, it cannot accept sensors; the SAUJ with a -S suffix uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear. Remember, the external stop screw merely sets the end position and does not lock the load; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if air loss occurs.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X160-10
- ✓ 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 SUJ100X160-10 FAQ
Yes, the SUJ100X160-10 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-10, which matches the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
This double-acting double-rod cylinder has a 10 mm adjust window, allowing the 160 mm extend stroke to be shortened to 150 mm on-site. The stop screw sets end position only and does not hold the load on air loss.
