This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X300-20S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X300-20S 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 SUJ100X300-20S
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X300-20S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 300mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X300-20S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X300-20S
The AirTAC SUJ100X300-20S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, yielding a usable 280-300 mm stroke. The nominal 300 mm is the maximum. It features a 100 mm bore, a Ø25 mm piston rod, M20x1.5 rod-end thread, and a 1/2" port. This discontinued unit is replaced drop-in by the SAUJ100X300-20S, matching the bore, stroke, 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, and SC-series FA/LB mounting.
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull, peaking at 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. A practical 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 SAUJ upgrade adopts current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, replacing this model's legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Remember 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 SAUJ100X300-20S 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 SAUJ100X300-20S 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 SUJ100X300-20S
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 100 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×300 | 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 SUJ100X300-20S Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Field-trim the 20 mm extend window to dial in exact pressing depth for bearings without machining hard stops.
Variable Length Diverter
Adjust the extend stroke on-site to deflect different package sizes on a conveyor line as product mix changes.
Adjustable Height Stop
Fine-tune the end position of a 300 mm stroke pallet stop to accommodate varying load heights in a cell.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X300-20S with the SAUJ100X300-20S
To replace this discontinued SUJ100X300-20S, specify the drop-in SAUJ100X300-20S, keeping the 100 mm bore, 300 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounts. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present; you must migrate from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. When sizing, the neighbouring 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N, so verify your 0.5 MPa force margin. Choose the 20 mm adjust window if you need field-tuning of the extend end-position; for fixed points, a standard SAU cylinder suffices. Because the stroke is 300 mm, add external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads. The stop screw sets end position but does not lock the load on air loss—install a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock for vertical holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X300-20S
- ✓ 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 SUJ100X300-20S FAQ
Yes, the AirTAC SUJ100X300-20S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X300-20S, matching the 100 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust window, 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.
It is double-acting single-rod with a 1/2" port. Force is 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 (max 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa). The external stop screw trims the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, giving a 280-300 mm usable stroke. The stop sets end position only and is not a load lock.
