This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ40X150-40S, 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 SUJ40X150-40S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X150-40S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X150-40S is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 110-150 mm from the 150 mm nominal maximum. This unit features a 1/4" port, a 16 mm rod, and adjustable 21 mm cushions. The stop screw strictly sets the end position; it is not a load lock, so external rod locks are required to hold loads without live air.
This SUJ40X150-40S model is discontinued and the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X150-40S, retaining the same bore, stroke, force, and SC-series FA/LB mounting compatibility. Because this is an -S variant, it has a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAUJ replacement upgrades to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ40X150-40S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ40X150-40S 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.
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site allows a single cylinder to cut different material lengths without physically swapping actuators.
Field-tuning the extend end position lets operators alter the diverter reach on a conveyor line to accommodate varying package widths.
An external stop screw provides a hard mechanical end position for metal forming, easily dialed back from the 150 mm maximum to dial in precise bend depths.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X150-40S, order the direct replacement SAUJ40X150-40S, which matches the 40 mm bore, 150 mm max stroke, 40 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 40 mm adjust window if your mechanism requires field tuning the extend stroke down to 110 mm. For the -S magnet, note the sensor change from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG on the SAUJ. Since the 150 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm, verify side-load limits to prevent guide bushing wear. The stop screw sets end position only and does not lock the load.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ40X150-40S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ40X150-40S, which matches the 40 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also offers the SAUF built-in-valve variant the SU line lacked.
The external stop screw window is 40 mm, allowing you to shorten the extend stroke from 150 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 SAUJ40X150-40S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
