About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1050S
The AirTAC SC100X1050S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 25 mm diameter rod and PT1/2 port, this 100 mm bore model is built for demanding linear applications requiring substantial force over a long 1050 mm stroke.
Equipped with a built-in magnet, the SC100X1050S allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. The tie-rod construction provides a robust and serviceable design, while the 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, protecting the end caps from impact. Its body length A is 188 mm, making the total extended length approximately 1238 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1050S Is Used
Pallet Transfer
Pushes heavy pallets across roller conveyors in automated logistics hubs, leveraging the 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa for reliable material flow.
Heavy Part Clamping
Secures large weldments or castings in machining fixtures, using the magnet-equipped cylinder for sensor-confirmed clamp engagement.
Waste Compaction
Drives the compaction plate in industrial balers, generating up to 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa to densify recyclable materials.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1050S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X1050S when your application requires a force of about 3927 N at standard plant pressure. If the load is lighter, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces the push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier demands, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. For this 1050 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loading, as an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is susceptible to bending. Use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if lateral forces are present. As a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 1050 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mount, and the -S magnet option.
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 SC100X1050S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N. At the standard factory line pressure of 0.7 MPa, it increases to 5497 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 7068 N.
To ensure a correct drop-in replacement, verify five key points: the 100 mm bore, the 1050 mm stroke, the PT1/2 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the presence of the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility.
