The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1050STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1050mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1050STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to a substantial 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 1050 mm stroke make it a robust choice for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks where a long reach is essential.
This model is configured with a built-in magnet (-S) and a centre trunnion mount (TC), supplied with the TCM1 bracket for smooth pivoting motion. The 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston quietly, protecting the end caps during high-cycle operation. As a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, it offers a compact, serviceable design that is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 profile.

The 1050 mm stroke excels in conveyor systems for pushing heavy totes or pallets between distant stations, where the centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to pivot freely.
Provides consistent clamping force for large weldments. The magnet allows easy integration of CMSG sensors to confirm full extension and retraction in automated cells.
Ideal for operating heavy dock equipment, the 3927 N push force at standard shop air reliably lifts and positions steel plates, with the trunnion absorbing misalignment.
Selecting the SC100X1050STC means choosing a 100 mm bore with a 1050 mm stroke, which is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore size. If your application requires even higher force, stepping up to the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N of push at 0.5 MPa. For strokes of this length, careful management of side loads is critical; an external guide rail or a guided cylinder configuration is strongly recommended to prevent bending stress on the 25 mm rod and premature bearing wear. When replacing an existing unit, ensure a 5-point match: 100 mm bore, 1050 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the TCM1 bracket, and the integrated magnet for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this cylinder generates 3927 N of force when extending (push) and 3681 N when retracting (pull). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
To ensure a direct drop-in replacement, verify these five specifications: a 100 mm bore, a 1050 mm stroke, a PT (tapered pipe) port thread, a centre trunnion (TC) mount that includes the TCM1 bracket, and the presence of a built-in magnet (-S) for sensor mounting. This is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles.
