About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X200H
The AirTAC SC160X200H is a heavy-duty tie-rod cylinder engineered for high-temperature environments, featuring a 160 mm bore and 200 mm stroke. Its Viton (FKM) seals shift the operating range to 0–150 °C, making it suitable for autoclaves, foundries, and drying lines where standard seals would degrade. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 10053 N and pulls with 9425 N, while the 40 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion handle substantial end-of-stroke loads.
This double-acting cylinder uses PT3/4 ports and an M36x2 rod thread, with a body length A of 239 mm. The SC160X200H is a genuine AirTAC component built for reliable force output in demanding thermal cycles, backed by the SC family's proven tie-rod construction.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X200H Is Used
High-Temperature Clamping
Viton seals allow continuous operation up to 150 °C, ideal for clamping fixtures inside industrial ovens or autoclave lid actuation where heat destroys standard seals.
Heavy Press Tool Actuation
With 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder powers medium-duty forming and stamping presses, delivering consistent force through extended hot-running shifts.
Foundry Knockout Stations
The robust 40 mm rod and Viton sealing withstand the radiant heat and abrasive dust of foundry shakeout and sand reclamation lines, providing reliable part ejection.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X200H the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing even higher force, step up to the SC200 bore (15708 N push at 0.5 MPa); if space or weight is a concern, the SC125 bore offers 6136 N push. At a 200 mm stroke, the 40 mm rod is inherently stiff, but any side load should be managed with an external linear guide—tie-rod cylinders are not designed to absorb lateral forces. When replacing an existing unit, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, basic mount, and confirm the Viton seal suffix (H) for high-temperature compatibility.
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 SC160X200H FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (approx. 5 bar) it delivers 10053 N extending and 9425 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 18095 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so mounting dimensions and overall length differ. Only replace another AirTAC SC160 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, basic mount, and Viton (H) seals.
