This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ100X160-100, 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-100 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 SAUJ100X160-100, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ100X160-100 is a double-acting double-rod adjustable-stroke profile cylinder. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 60-160 mm from the 160 mm nominal maximum. It features a 1/2" port, a 25 mm rod, and 29 mm adjustable cushions. The stop sets the end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.
This SUJ unit is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-100, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrades to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this legacy model used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor. The profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ100X160-100 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ100X160-100 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.
Adjusts the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site to handle multiple product lengths without swapping the entire cylinder.
Tunes the extend stop position on the fly to route different package sizes accurately along a profile barrel shorter than standard.
Trims the extend stroke to push loads to varying conveyor depths, relying on the external stop screw to set the precise end position.
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X160-100, use the SAUJ100X160-100 direct: it preserves the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 100 mm adjust window if you need to trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site; the stop screw sets end position but is not a lock, so add an external rod lock for held loads. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a switch; the SAUJ uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For the 160 mm stroke, side-load is low, but for any stroke over 300 mm, guide the load to prevent rod bending. Mounting is compatible with the AirTAC SC series only.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ100X160-100 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-100, which matches the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 100 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.
The external stop screw window is 100 mm, allowing you to trim the 160 mm nominal extend stroke down to 60 mm on-site. The stop sets end position but is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ100X160-100 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
