This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ50X150-50S, 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 SUJ50X150-50S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ50X150-50S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SUJ50X150-50S is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, yielding a usable 100-150 mm stroke from the 150 mm nominal maximum. It features a 1/4" port, an M16x1.5 rod thread, and 21 mm adjustable air cushions. This discontinued model is fully replaced by the direct replacement SAUJ50X150-50S, which retains the exact bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting.
The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; a plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock for held loads. The SAUJ upgrade switches legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches while keeping the compact profile barrel shorter than standard cylinders.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ50X150-50S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAUJ50X150-50S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for sensor position sensing. |
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 up to 50 mm to alter part pitch without swapping the entire cylinder.
Sets precise diversion distances on the fly, trimming the extend stroke to route varying package sizes.
Trims the extend stroke to push boxes to different conveyor depths without repositioning the cylinder mount.
To replace the discontinued SUJ50X150-50S, order the direct replacement SAUJ50X150-50S, which matches the 50 mm bore, 150 mm max stroke, 50 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 50 mm adjust window if you need to trim the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site; the external stop sets end position but does not lock the load, so add an external rod lock for vertical holding. Because this unit has the -S magnet, upgrade your position sensing from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SUJ50X150-50S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAUJ50X150-50S, matching the 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust window, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. You must upgrade the position sensors from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
The external stop screw trims the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, giving a usable 100-150 mm stroke from the 150 mm nominal maximum. 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 SAUJ50X150-50S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
