About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100H
The SC100X100H is a 100 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm standard stroke, equipped with Viton (FKM) seals for reliable operation in high-temperature environments up to 150°C. This model delivers a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and can reach 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it a powerful actuator for hot industrial processes.
Built on the proven AirTAC SC tie-rod platform, the cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 port threads, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate end-of-stroke impact. The body length A is 188 mm, resulting in a compact extended length of approximately 288 mm for this specific 100 mm stroke configuration.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100H Is Used
Furnace Door Actuation
Viton seals allow the SC100X100H to reliably open and close small furnace or oven doors where ambient temperatures exceed 70°C, providing the high push force required to break a heat seal.
Autoclave & Sterilizer Mechanisms
With 0-150°C seal compatibility, this cylinder is ideal for actuating locks, clamps, or transfer arms within medical and laboratory autoclaves, resisting steam and aggressive cleaning agents.
Hot Molding & Forming Presses
Deploy the SC100X100H for part ejection or gate cutting in hot rubber or plastic molding presses, where its 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa and high-temperature resilience ensure consistent cycle performance.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100H the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force at 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore SC series provides 2513 N, while stepping up to the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N. Always match replacement cylinders on five points: 100 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the absence of a built-in magnet. The Viton seal option (suffix H) is critical for continuous operation above 70°C.
At this 100 mm stroke, the rod is well-supported within the bearing for most axial loads. If side loads are present, always use an external guide system to prevent premature rod bearing wear and seal failure.
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 SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100H FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 5497 N and the pull force is 3681 N. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 7068 N. These values assume a static application; dynamic loads should include a safety factor.
Yes, the SC100X100H is a direct dimensional replacement for a standard SC100X100 with TPU seals, provided the application temperature is within the 0 to 150°C range. The Viton seals offer superior high-temperature resistance but have the same physical dimensions and port configuration (PT1/2).
