About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X700
The SC125X700 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder that generates 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and climbs to 11045 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 32 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion are sized for heavy industrial loads, while the 700 mm stroke suits mid-to-long travel linear transfer tasks.
With a body length A of 203 mm and a total extended length of approximately 903 mm, this genuine AirTAC SC series actuator provides a compact yet powerful solution. The PT1/2 port and M27×2 rod thread ensure secure pneumatic connections, and the standard TPU seals deliver reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X700 Is Used
Pallet Transfer & Stops
The 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily lifts and positions heavy pallets on conveyor lines, while the adjustable cushion absorbs impact during high-cycle stopping.
Press & Clamp Fixtures
Delivering up to 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder provides the high clamping force needed for welding jigs, assembly presses, and heavy-part holding fixtures.
Material Handling Gates
The 700 mm stroke and robust 32 mm rod are ideal for diverting heavy bulk materials or operating large chute gates in mining and aggregate processing.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X700 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing less force, stepping down to the SC100 bore reduces push force to 3927 N at 0.5 MPa; for even higher thrust, the SC160 bore delivers 10053 N at the same pressure. At 700 mm stroke, ensure side loads are managed—long unsupported rods can bend under lateral force, so consider an external guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not purely axial. When replacing an existing unit, match five points: 125 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the specific mounting accessory (this basic model uses no bracket), and the magnet option (this code has no magnet).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X700 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (≈73 psi) the cylinder produces 6136 N pushing and 5734 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 11045 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 1251 kgf.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so mounting dimensions differ. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC125 tie-rod cylinder with the same 700 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, and identical mounting configuration.
