This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ40X80-40, 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 SUJ40X80-40 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ40X80-40, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ40X80-40 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, yielding a usable 40-80 mm stroke from the 80 mm nominal maximum. This discontinued unit is fully replaced by the direct replacement SAUJ40X80-40, which shares the same compact profile body, force, and SC-series FA/LB mounting.
The SAUJ upgrade adopts current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, replacing the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches used here, and introduces the SAUF built-in-valve variant the SU line lacked. Note this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a switch; the stop screw sets end position but is not a load lock.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ40X80-40 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The SAUJ40X80-40 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 precise divergence gate alignment without machining custom spacers.
Adjusting the 80 mm extend stroke down to 40 mm accommodates changing package sizes on a packing line quickly.
Setting the end position externally via the stop screw enables exact pusher pin depth for varying tote dimensions.
To replace the discontinued SUJ40X80-40, order the exact direct replacement SAUJ40X80-40, which preserves the 40 mm bore, 80 mm nominal stroke, 40 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. The -40 mm adjust window is ideal when field stroke tuning is required, beating a fixed SAU plus external stop. Because this SKU has no magnet, you cannot add a switch; the SAUJ requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the old CS1-B/DS1-B. For strokes at or over 300 mm, verify side-load limits. The stop screw sets end position only; use an external rod lock for held loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ40X80-40 is discontinued. The SAUJ uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
The external stop screw trims the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, giving a usable 40-80 mm stroke. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the SAUJ40X80-40 replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
