The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1000H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1000mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X1000H is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a long 1000 mm stroke. It generates a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it a powerful actuator for demanding linear applications.
This variant is fitted with Viton (FKM) seals, designated by the 'H' suffix, which shifts the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C, ideal for hot environments like foundries or autoclaves. The cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 thread, PT1/2 ports, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the high inertia load smoothly.

With its Viton seals rated for 0-150°C, this cylinder is a reliable choice for actuating dampers, valves, or clamps in autoclaves, steam lines, and industrial drying ovens where standard seals would degrade.
The 1000 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa efficiently transfer heavy pallets or large components between conveyor sections, providing the long reach needed to cross wide gaps in material handling lines.
Delivering up to 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder can eject heavy stamped parts or push large workpieces out of a forming press, with its long stroke clearing the entire die area in one smooth motion.
For applications requiring slightly less force, stepping down to an SC80 bore provides 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa in a more compact 182 mm body length. The 1000 mm stroke on this SC100 model is within the standard offering, but with a total extended length of approximately 1188 mm, careful alignment and rigid mounting are critical to prevent rod buckling. For any stroke over 300 mm, always assess side loads; if present, an external guide rail or a guided cylinder is mandatory to protect the rod bearing from bending moments.
To ensure a direct replacement, match five key specifications: the 100 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting configuration, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model is a standard tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the push force is 5497 N and the pull force is 3681 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X1000H is a standard double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The piston can drift or drop under load. If position holding is required, you must add an external rod lock, a mechanical brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
