This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ63X400-50 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ63X400-50 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.
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ63X400-50
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ63X400-50 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 400mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ63X400-50, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ63X400-50
The AirTAC SUJ63X400-50 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with a 63mm bore and 400mm nominal stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 50mm on-site, yielding a usable 350-400mm window. This discontinued model delivers 1559N push and 1402N pull at 0.5MPa (2805N push at 0.9MPa) through a 3/8" port, with adjustable 21mm cushions at each end. The stop sets the end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.
The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ63X400-50, preserving the bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. Upgrading to the SAUJ moves you to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors (this SKU used legacy CS1-B/DS1-B) and lacks a magnet for switches. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 935N (60% of the 0.5MPa push), equating to a 79kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. At 400mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ63X400-50 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The SAUJ63X400-50 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.
Where the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ63X400-50 Is Used
Variable Pitch Indexing
Allows on-site extend tuning up to 50mm to alter part ejection distance without swapping the entire cylinder.
Adjustable Diverter Gates
Trims the extend stroke to accommodate different package widths on the fly, ensuring precise routing.
Variable Depth Pushers
Shortens the extend stroke by up to 50mm to push varying carton depths into packing zones accurately.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ63X400-50 with the SAUJ63X400-50
To replace the discontinued SUJ63X400-50, order the drop-in SAUJ63X400-50. It keeps the 63mm bore, 400mm nominal stroke, 3/8" port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and FA/LB mounting. The 50mm adjust window is retained, letting you trim the extend stroke down to 350mm on-site. If you need more force, the neighbouring 80mm bore provides 2513N push at 0.5MPa; if less is acceptable, the 50mm bore gives 982N. Because this SKU has no magnet, it cannot take a switch; the SAUJ upgrade uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For the 400mm stroke, add external guides to manage side-load and rod-bending. The stop screw sets end position only; it is not a lock, so add an external rod lock for load holding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ63X400-50
- ✓ 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 SUJ63X400-50 FAQ
