About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X660S
The AirTAC SC160X660S is a double-acting tie-rod 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 40 mm diameter piston rod and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion, it handles high-force linear applications reliably.
This model includes a built-in magnet, allowing easy mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly onto the barrel for precise position feedback. The 660 mm stroke is within the standard range for the 160 mm bore, ensuring quick availability without custom lead times.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X660S Is Used
Heavy Machinery Actuation
Provides the high force needed for lifting, tilting, or clamping mechanisms on agricultural and construction equipment, with sensor feedback for automated sequences.
Industrial Press Feed
Delivers consistent 10 kN+ force to feed heavy stock into stamping presses or forming machines, with adjustable cushioning to protect tooling at the end of stroke.
Palletizer Pusher
Moves heavy pallets or bulk goods onto conveyor lines. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke detection to synchronize with other warehouse automation systems.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X660S the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring less force, stepping down to the SC125 bore provides 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The SC160X660S uses a 40 mm rod; for strokes over 300 mm, always assess side-load conditions. If the load is not purely axial, an external guide or guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: 160 mm bore, 660 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S magnet option for sensor 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 SC160X660S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 10053 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 18095 N. The theoretical pull force at 0.5 MPa is 9425 N.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet. This allows you to directly clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing without additional brackets.
