This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ40X450-10, 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 SUJ40X450-10 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X450-10, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X450-10 is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 450mm maximum extend stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 10mm on-site, giving a usable 440-450mm window to dial in machine positioning. The 1/4" port and M12x1.25 rod thread are fixed to this size.
This SUJ model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X450-10, matching the bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrades sensing to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches (this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take any switch), while the SAU line adds a built-in-valve variant the SU lacked. The stop screw sets end position only; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ40X450-10 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ40X450-10 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 10mm extend window lets operators fine-tune a pressing depth on-site without re-machining hard stops.
Shorten the extend stroke slightly to accommodate varying package sizes on a transfer line using the external stop screw.
Dial in the exact push-off distance for pallets of varying widths, using the 440-450mm usable stroke to prevent over-travel.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X450-10, specify the SAUJ40X450-10 direct. Choose the 10mm adjust window when you need minor on-site extend trimming (440-450mm) rather than fitting a fixed SAU plus an external stop. Mounting remains FA or LB, compatible with the AirTAC SC series only. Because this SKU has no magnet, you cannot fit a switch; the SAUJ accepts CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. At 450mm stroke, prevent rod bending by supporting the load with external guides to minimize side-load.
Replacement checklist
Yes, it is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ40X450-10, matching the 40mm bore, 450mm stroke, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, whereas this SUJ SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a switch.
The external stop screw trims the extend stroke by up to 10mm on-site, yielding a 440-450mm usable window. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock for held loads.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ40X450-10 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
