This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X275-40S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X275-40S 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 SUJ100X275-40S
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X275-40S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 275mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X275-40S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X275-40S
The AirTAC SUJ100X275-40S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, yielding a usable 235-275 mm extension from the 275 mm nominal maximum. The 100 mm bore generates 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, peaking at 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. It features a 1/2" port, a 25 mm rod, and 29 mm adjustable cushions.
This unit is replaced drop-in by the SAUJ100X275-40S, retaining the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The upgrade shifts legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For sizing, a 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. Note the stop screw sets end position only; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ100X275-40S 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 SAUJ100X275-40S 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.
Model Code: Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X275-40S

| ×275 | 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 SUJ100X275-40S Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Allows operators to dial in the exact 235-275 mm extend position on-site for pressing bearings without machining hard stops.
Variable Length Diverter
Adjusts the extend stroke to deflect varying package sizes on a conveyor line, providing flexible routing.
Adjustable Pallet Stop
Sets precise end positions for different pallet depths, using the 40 mm trim window to accommodate mixed loads.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X275-40S with the SAUJ100X275-40S
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X275-40S, order the drop-in SAUJ100X275-40S, which matches the 100 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. If resizing, neighbouring bores offer different 0.5 MPa forces: the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push, while the 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push. Choose the 40 mm adjust window when you need precise on-site end-position tuning between 235 and 275 mm. Because this model includes the -S magnet, you must upgrade from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches on the SAUJ. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X275-40S
- ✓ 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 SUJ100X275-40S FAQ
Yes, the SUJ100X275-40S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X275-40S, which matches the 100 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust window, and 1/2" port. You only need to upgrade the sensors from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
The 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 40 mm adjust window, allowing you to shorten the 275 mm nominal extend stroke down to 235 mm. The stop sets end position only and does not lock the load.
