About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100S
The SC100X100S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 25 mm piston rod and PT1/2 ports suit medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks where a compact 100 mm working stroke is needed.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing. The standard TPU seals provide a reliable operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C, and the body length A is 188 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100S Is Used
Clamping & Pressing
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa makes this cylinder ideal for pneumatic clamps, small forming presses, and assembly fixtures needing a short, powerful stroke.
Part Stops & Diverters
With a built-in magnet for end-of-stroke sensing, the SC100X100S is perfect for conveyor stops and diverter gates, confirming position to the control system on every cycle.
Lifting & Hopper Gates
Use this cylinder to operate hopper discharge gates or lift moderate loads in material handling systems, where the 100 mm stroke provides a clean, repeatable motion.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X100S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing less force, the 80 mm bore SC80 series provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. If a longer stroke is required, the SC100 supports standard strokes up to 1500 mm. When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting style. Always use an external guide or guided cylinder if the rod will experience significant side loads.
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 SC100X100S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 5497 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 7068 N. The theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X100S indicates a factory-installed magnet in the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be clamped onto the cylinder's tie-rod barrel for reliable, non-contact position detection.
