The AirTAC Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X105SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 105mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC125X105SH is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 11045 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 105 mm stroke, this model is well-suited for medium-travel clamping and pressing operations, featuring a 32 mm piston rod and M27x2 rod thread for robust connection.
This variant is equipped with a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals (-H), extending the operating range to 0-150°C. The tie-rod construction provides a shorter overall length than an ISO 15552 profile, with a body length A of 203 mm and an adjustable pneumatic cushion of 28 mm for smooth deceleration.

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
The Viton seals and 0-150°C rating make this cylinder ideal for tire curing presses, composite molding, and heated platen applications where standard seals would degrade.
Delivers 11045 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing to confirm the part is securely locked before machining or welding begins.
Used in foundry equipment and steel mill actuators. The 32 mm rod and M27x2 thread handle high side loads when externally guided, and the adjustable cushion protects the end caps during high-speed cycles.
Select the SC125X105SH for applications needing high force in a compact tie-rod format. If your load requires less force, consider stepping down to the SC100 bore (3927 N at 0.5 MPa). For even higher force demands, the SC160 bore offers 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. The 105 mm stroke is within the standard range for this bore. When replacing, ensure a 5-point match: 125 mm bore, 105 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet sensor option, and the Viton seal material.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 6136 N and the pull force is 5734 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 11045 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 1251 kgf.
No. The SC125X105SH is a double-acting cylinder and does not lock or hold position when pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The piston will drift under load. For load holding, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
