This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X225-100 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X225-100 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X225-100 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X225-100, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ100X225-100 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, yielding a usable 125-225 mm window. Because this SUJ model is discontinued, the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X225-100, matching the 100 mm bore, 225 mm maximum stroke, 1/2" port, and SC-series FA/LB mounting. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.
At 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore generates 3927 N push and 3681 N pull, peaking at 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. A practical computed insight sets the safe working load around 2356 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), translating to a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor, and upgrading to the SAUJ moves legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

The SAUJ100X225-100 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.
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site allows a single 225 mm cylinder to drive multiple product pitches without mechanical rebuilds.
Dial in the pusher end position between 125 mm and 225 mm to handle varying package sizes on a shared line while maintaining 3927 N of push force.
Use the external stop screw to set precise mechanical end positions for pressing or forming tasks, providing a hard physical limit independent of pneumatic pressure.
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X225-100, order the drop-in SAUJ100X225-100, which preserves the 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounts. When sizing both ways, the neighbouring 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and 5497 N at 0.7 MPa. Choose the 100 mm adjust window if your fixture requires trimming the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site. This non-magnet version cannot accept sensors; if you need position detection, select an SAUJ with the -S suffix and use current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For strokes at or above 300 mm, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ100X225-100 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X225-100, which matches the 100 mm bore, 225 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 switches.
The 100 mm bore delivers 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, with a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 100 mm adjust window, allowing you to shorten the 225 mm extend stroke down to 125 mm on-site. The stop sets end position but is not a load lock.
