This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ50X125-10S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ50X125-10S in place of this model. 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 SUJ50X125-10S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ50X125-10S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ50X125-10S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with a 125 mm nominal stroke and a built-in piston magnet (-S). An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable 115-125 mm extension window for exact positioning without machining. The 50 mm bore features a 1/4" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and delivers 982 N push / 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa. This SUJ series is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ50X125-10S, retaining the same bore, stroke, force, and SC-series FA/LB mounting.
The SAUJ upgrade transitions from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For sizing, the 982 N push at 0.5 MPa yields a safe working load of ~589 N (60%), translating to a ~50 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; drifting occurs on air loss, requiring an external rod lock for held loads.

The SAUJ50X125-10S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. 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.
Fine-tunes the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site to perfectly seat a pneumatic diverter gate against varying product sizes without re-engineering the fixture.
Adjusts the extend endpoint in the field to fold carton flaps of slightly different heights, ensuring crisp tuck-and-fold alignment on the packaging line.
Micro-adjusts the stop pin extension on a conveyor to accommodate mixed product lengths on the fly, preventing over-travel and ensuring precise indexing.
To replace the discontinued SUJ50X125-10S, specify the SAUJ50X125-10S as a direct drop-in, keeping the 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounts. The -S suffix means your legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors must be swapped to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. If sizing both ways, the neighbouring 63 mm bore offers higher force (1559 N push @0.5 MPa) while the 40 mm bore is smaller (628 N push @0.5 MPa). The 10 mm adjust window is ideal for micro-trimming the extend stroke; the stop screw sets end position but is not a lock. For stroke lengths >=300 mm, verify side-load constraints to prevent rod bending.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the AirTAC SUJ50X125-10S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ50X125-10S, which shares the same 50 mm bore, 125 mm nominal stroke, 10 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also introduces the SAUF built-in-valve variant the SU line lacked.
The 50 mm bore provides 982 N push / 825 N pull @0.5 MPa, 1374 N push @0.7 MPa, and 1767 N push @0.9 MPa (max 200 kgf @1.0 MPa). The external stop screw allows trimming the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site (usable 115-125 mm). The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; the SAUJ replacement uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The stop sets end position but is not a load lock.
