This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ40X225-30, 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 SUJ40X225-30 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X225-30, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X225-30 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod profile cylinder featuring a 225 mm maximum extend stroke and a 30 mm external stop screw window, allowing you to trim the extend stroke down to 195 mm on-site. The extruded aluminum profile barrel is notably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot accept a magnetic switch for position sensing. As a direct replacement, use the SAUJ40X225-30: it matches the 40 mm bore, stroke, force, port, and SC-series FA/LB mounting, but upgrades sensing to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches (the SUJ used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B).

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 from 195 to 225 mm to alter the pitch of parts feeding into a machining center without swapping cylinders.
Provides a field-adjustable stop for a transfer pusher, letting operators trim the 225 mm stroke by up to 30 mm to accommodate changing package sizes.
Enables quick recalibration of a sorting diverter arm by shortening the extend stroke on-site, ensuring precise routing of varied inventory.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X225-30, select the direct replacement SAUJ40X225-30, which preserves the 40 mm bore, 225 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 30 mm adjust window when you need precise end-position tuning between 195 mm and 225 mm without adding external stops. Since this specific SKU has no magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you require position detection on the SAUJ replacement, order an -S version and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify your guide system handles the side-load moments. Remember the stop screw sets end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ40X225-30 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ40X225-30, which matches the 40 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.
This double-acting double-rod cylinder has a 30 mm adjust window, allowing you to shorten the 225 mm extend stroke down to 195 mm. The stop screw sets end position but is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ40X225-30 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
