The decay of the Z' boson into supersymmetric particles is studied. We investigate how these supersymmetric modes affect the current limits from the Tevatron and project the expected sensitivities at the LHC. Employing three representative supersymmetric Z' models, namely, E-6, U(1)(B-L), and the sequential model, we show that the current limits of the Z' mass from the Tevatron could be reduced substantially due to the weakening of the branching ratio into leptonic pairs. The mass reach for the E6 Z' bosons is about 1.3 -1.5 TeV at the LHC-7 (1 fb(-1)), about 2.5-2.6 TeV at the LHC-10 (10 fb(-1)), and about 4.2-4.3 TeV at the LHC-14 (100 fb(-1)). A similar but slightly better mass reach for the U(1)(B-L) Z' is also obtained. We also examine the potential of identifying various supersymmetric decay modes of the Z' boson because it may play a crucial role in the detailed dynamics of supersymmetry breaking.
