This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the drop-in replacement SAUJ40X100-10, 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 SUJ40X100-10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ40X100-10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X100-10 is a discontinued 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 90-100 mm extend out of the 100 mm nominal maximum. This compact aluminum-barrel unit delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, features a 1/4" port, and uses adjustable 21 mm cushions.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a switch. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ40X100-10, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. Upgrading to the SAUJ moves you to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors (the SUJ used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B) and offers the SAUF built-in-valve variant. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 377 N (60% of the 628 N push), and vertical lift is about 32 kg with a 2:1 margin. The stop sets end position only; use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ40X100-10 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
The SAUJ40X100-10 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.
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site allows precise positioning of a diverter gate without machining spacer plates.
External stop screw fine-tunes the end position of a conveyor lane stopper to accommodate varying carton heights.
Adjustable extend endpoint lets operators dial in the exact clamping position for delicate parts on the fly.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X100-10, use the drop-in SAUJ40X100-10, which preserves the 40 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. When sizing both ways, the neighboring 32 mm bore provides 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 50 mm bore offers 982 N push at 0.5 MPa. Choose the 10 mm adjust window if you need minor field tuning of the extend end position; for larger trims, select a model with a wider adjust range. Since this SKU has no magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; if sensing is required, move to an SAUJ-S and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For this 100 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for strokes >=300 mm, guide the load externally to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ40X100-10 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ40X100-10, which matches the 40 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting.
The double-acting single-rod force is 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, 1130 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 10 mm adjust window, allowing you to shorten the extend stroke from the 100 mm nominal maximum down to 90 mm.
