This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ100X160-100S, 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 SUJ100X160-100S
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-100S 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 SAUJ100X160-100S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-100S
The AirTAC SUJ100X160-100S is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site. With a nominal 160 mm stroke, the usable extend range is 60-160 mm. It features a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 rod thread, and a 1/2" port.
This discontinued SUJ model is replaced direct by the SAUJ100X160-100S, which retains the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The upgrade path moves the -S piston magnet sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ100X160-100S 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 SAUJ100X160-100S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
Model Code: Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-100S
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×160 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 SUJ100X160-100S Is Used
Variable Pitch Indexing
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site allows a single 160 mm cylinder to drive multiple varying pitch lengths without swapping the whole actuator body.
Variable Depth Loading
When loading pallets of differing heights, the 60-160 mm usable stroke window provides on-site depth tuning to prevent over-travel without re-plumbing the 1/2 inch port.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-100S with the SAUJ100X160-100S
To replace the SUJ100X160-100S, order the direct replacement SAUJ100X160-100S, matching the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, and 100 mm adjust window. Choose the 100 mm adjust window when you need to cut the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, avoiding the cost of a fixed-stroke SAU plus an external stop. Retain FA or LB mounting from the SC series. For the -S magnet, swap legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Because the 160 mm stroke is under 300 mm, side-load lever arm stress is minimal, but always guide the rod end.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X160-100S
- ✓ 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 SUJ100X160-100S FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SUJ100X160-100S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ100X160-100S, which matches the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust window, 1/2 inch port, and FA/LB mounting. You must upgrade the -S magnet sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The external stop screw window is 100 mm, meaning you can shorten the 160 mm nominal extend stroke down to 60 mm on-site. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
