This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ80X500-75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ80X500-75 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 SUJ80X500-75
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ80X500-75 is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 500mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ80X500-75, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ80X500-75
The AirTAC SUJ80X500-75 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an external stop screw that lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, yielding a usable 425-500 mm extend out of the 500 mm nominal maximum. This 80 mm bore delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, peaking at 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa. It features a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 rod thread, 28 mm adjustable cushions, and a 3/8" port.
This SUJ unit is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ80X500-75, retaining the same bore, stroke, force, port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrade path moves to current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, as this legacy model used CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 1508 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), translating to a 128 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor, and the stop screw sets end position—it is not a load lock.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SU datasheet (now discontinued). The SAUJ80X500-75 carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAUJ80X500-75 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 SUJ80X500-75 Is Used
Variable-Length Ejector Stroke
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site lets a production line tune part ejection distance for varying product sizes without changing the entire cylinder.
Adjustable Transfer Pusher
A 500 mm extend stroke can be dialed back to 425 mm to position a transfer pusher precisely for different pallet widths, setting the exact end position mechanically.
Tunable Divert Gate Arm
Field-tuning the extend stop allows a sorting diverter gate to hit distinct actuation points for mixed package depths on a packing line.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ80X500-75 with the SAUJ80X500-75
To replace the discontinued SUJ80X500-75, order the SAUJ80X500-75; it is a true drop-in swap keeping the 3/8" port, 500 mm nominal stroke, and 75 mm adjust window. When sizing both ways, the neighbouring 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. Choose the 75 mm adjust window if you need on-site tuning of the extend end position without swapping the cylinder. Mounting uses FA or LB brackets (SC-series compatible). Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept a sensor; if sensing is required, move to an SAUJ-S variant and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B. At 500 mm stroke, mind the side-load and rod-bending limits—use external guides to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ80X500-75
- ✓ 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 SUJ80X500-75 FAQ
Yes, the SUJ80X500-75 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ80X500-75, which matches the 80 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust window, 3/8" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ also uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B.
The 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa (max 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa). The external stop screw window is 75 mm, shortening the 500 mm nominal extend stroke down to 425 mm. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock.
