The AirTAC Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X200LB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 200mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC160X200LB is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 18095 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 160 mm bore and a 200 mm stroke, this model includes an LB foot mounting bracket (F-SC160LB) for secure axial surface installation.
This tie-rod cylinder uses a 40 mm diameter piston rod with an M36x2 knuckle thread and PT3/4 port connections. Its adjustable pneumatic cushioning (29 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end, protecting the end caps during high-cycle operations within the 30-500 mm/s speed range.

Provides the 10 kN class force needed for clamping and forming in large pneumatic presses, with foot mounting ensuring stability under high thrust.
Delivers reliable push force for lifting heavy pallets in material handling stations, where the 200 mm stroke offers sufficient vertical displacement.
Operates large ventilation dampers or gates in heavy industry, using its high force output to move against significant system back-pressure.
Select the SC160X200LB when your application requires a robust push force in the 10 kN class at standard plant pressure. For a step down in force, the SC125 bore offers 6136 N at 0.5 MPa; for higher force demands, the SC200 bore provides 15708 N at the same pressure. Always match the bore, 200 mm stroke, PT3/4 thread, and LB foot mount when replacing a legacy cylinder.
For this 200 mm stroke, the 40 mm rod and rigid foot mounting handle direct axial loads well. If side loads are present, even at this stroke, ensure the load is externally guided to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N and the pull force is 9425 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 18095 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
Match five key points: 160 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, LB foot mounting (using bracket F-SC160LB), and the standard non-magnetic piston. This is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
