This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ32X160-50, 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.

The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ32X160-50 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ32X160-50, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ32X160-50 is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 110-160 mm from the 160 mm nominal maximum. The compact extruded aluminum barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. This 32 mm bore version features a 12 mm rod, M10x1.25 rod thread, and a 1/8" port.
This SUJ model is discontinued and the direct replacement is the SAUJ32X160-50, which retains the same bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. A key upgrade is that the SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this legacy SUJ used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Note that this specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take a magnetic switch. 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 SAUJ32X160-50 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ32X160-50 produces the same force from the same bore. 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.
Feeding different length parts on a line by dialing the extend stroke in 50 mm on-site without changing the cylinder.
Positioning a divert arm precisely where needed for changing package sizes, using the stop screw to set the exact end point.
Applying a precise end position for light pressing tasks where the 50 mm trim window prevents over-travel damage.
To replace the discontinued SUJ32X160-50, select the direct replacement SAUJ32X160-50, which matches the 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 1/8" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 50 mm adjust window if you need to trim the extend stroke on-site between 110 and 160 mm; the stop screw sets the end position but does not lock the load. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot use sensors, but if upgrading to an -S SAUJ, plan to switch from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ32X160-50 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ32X160-50, which matches the 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 1/8" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also supports current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
The external stop screw provides a 50 mm adjust window, allowing you to trim the extend stroke from 160 mm down to 110 mm on-site. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ32X160-50 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
