This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ40X175-30S, 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 SUJ40X175-30S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X175-30S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X175-30S is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, giving a usable 145-175 mm extend window from the 175 mm nominal maximum. It features a 1/4" port, a Ø16 mm piston rod, and 21 mm adjustable air cushions at each end.
This discontinued SUJ series model is replaced direct by the SAUJ40X175-30S, which retains the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The upgrade path moves position sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. Note the stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; external rod locks are required for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ40X175-30S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ40X175-30S 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.
Allows on-site extend stroke tuning down to 145 mm to accommodate different material thicknesses or forming depths without swapping the entire cylinder.
Provides a field-adjustable hard stop for diverting varied package sizes on a line, trimming the extend stroke by up to 30 mm as needed.
Enables precise sealing head depth control for changing carton heights, using the stop screw to set the exact 145-175 mm extend endpoint.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X175-30S, specify the direct replacement SAUJ40X175-30S, keeping the 40 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Select the 30 mm adjust window if your end-position needs on-site tuning between 145 and 175 mm. Because this is an -S model, swap the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches on the SAUJ. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear. The external stop sets end position but does not lock the load; use an external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ40X175-30S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ40X175-30S, which matches the 40 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. You must upgrade the position sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The external stop screw offers a 30 mm adjust window, allowing the extend stroke to be trimmed on-site from the 175 mm nominal maximum down to 145 mm. The stop sets end position but is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ40X175-30S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
