This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X175-10 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X175-10 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 SUJ100X175-10
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X175-10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X175-10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X175-10
The AirTAC SUJ100X175-10 is a 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 165-175 mm stroke. The nominal 175 mm is the maximum. It 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 smoothly.
This SUJ unit is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X175-10, retaining the bore, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrades sensing to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this legacy model used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a magnetic switch. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 2356 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), translating to a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The stop screw sets end position only; use an external rod lock to hold loads on air loss.

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 SAUJ100X175-10 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 SUJ100X175-10 Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Trimming the 175 mm extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site allows precise bottoming out for press fits without machining hard stops.
Carton Flap Folding
Adjusting the extend end position compensates for varying carton depths, ensuring flaps fold cleanly without crushing the box.
End-of-Arm Tooling Registration
Fine-tuning the stroke window aligns grippers with part datum variations, providing exact positioning before clamping.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X175-10 with the SAUJ100X175-10
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X175-10, use the SAUJ100X175-10 drop-in, which preserves the 1/2" port, 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa, and FA/LB mounting. When sizing both ways, the neighbouring 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. The 10 mm adjust window is ideal for fine-tuning the extend end position without shims. Note that this non-magnet SKU cannot support sensors, whereas the SAUJ accepts CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear. The stop screw is an end-position setter, not a load lock; install a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X175-10
- ✓ 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 SUJ100X175-10 FAQ
Yes, the SUJ100X175-10 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X175-10, which matches the 100 mm bore, 175 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.
The double-acting single-rod unit has a 10 mm adjust window (usable extend stroke 165-175 mm). Force ratings are: 3927 N push / 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. The stop screw sets end position and is not a load lock.
