The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1120S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1120mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1120S is a double-acting single-rod tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm bore and a long 1120 mm stroke, this model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the barrel for precise position feedback.
This cylinder uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end (29 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The body length A is 188 mm, making the total extended length approximately 1308 mm. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s, and the standard TPU seals suit temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

The 1120 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa suit long-distance part pushers or transfer stations on packaging and assembly lines, with magnetic sensors confirming end-of-travel.
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for large workpieces. The built-in magnet enables sensor-based clamp-position verification in automated CNC or welding fixtures.
With its extended reach, this cylinder acts as a heavy-duty pallet stop or singulator in logistics systems. The adjustable cushion absorbs impact energy smoothly at high cycle rates.
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 125 mm bore SC125 series provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter stroke and lower force are acceptable, the 80 mm bore SC80 series offers 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 1120 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic mounting configuration.
Given the 1120 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads. For this stroke length, use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent rod bearing damage and ensure smooth operation. If side loads cannot be avoided, consider a guided cylinder assembly instead of a bare tie-rod unit.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf. These values assume a static load; dynamic applications require a safety factor.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors to be clamped directly onto the tie-rod barrel slots, providing non-contact end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position sensing.
