This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SU series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement SAUJ50X160-10S, 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.
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S
The AirTAC SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the SAUJ50X160-10S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S
The AirTAC SUJ50X160-10S is a double-acting double-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable 150-160 mm window from the 160 mm nominal maximum. It features a 1/4" port, an M16x1.5 rod thread, and 21 mm adjustable air cushions at each end. The stop sets the end position and is not a load lock; plain cylinders drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock for held loads.
This SUJ50X160-10S unit is discontinued and the direct replacement is the SAUJ50X160-10S, which preserves the bore, stroke, force, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Upgrading to the SAUJ is advantageous when you need current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, as this legacy model uses CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ50X160-10S carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The SAUJ50X160-10S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.
Model Code: Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S
| SU | Profile-type standard cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×160 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -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.
Where the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Allows operators to dial in the exact 150-160 mm extend position for seating light bearings without re-engineering fixed stops.
Transfer Diverter
Provides on-site stroke trimming to adjust a pusher arm's reach as product sizes change on the line.
Carton Stopper
Sets a precise end position for folding flaps, using the 10 mm window to compensate for mechanical wear over time.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S with the SAUJ50X160-10S
To replace the discontinued SUJ50X160-10S, order the direct replacement SAUJ50X160-10S, which matches the 50 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 1/4" port, and FA/LB mounting. Choose the 10 mm adjust window if you need fine 150-160 mm extend tuning; for larger trims, select a 20 mm or larger adjust model. Because this unit has the -S magnet, you must migrate from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the SAUJ. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ50X160-10S
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S): sensor family CS1-B → CMSG
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB)
- ✓ Need a built-in valve? → SAUF
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ50X160-10S FAQ
Yes, the SUJ50X160-10S is discontinued. You must upgrade the -S magnet switches from legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The external stop screw window is 10 mm, shortening the 160 mm nominal extend stroke to a usable 150-160 mm range on-site. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock.
