The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1300H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1300mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X1300H is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a long 1300 mm stroke, this model is built for applications requiring substantial linear travel and high force, such as material handling or large gate actuation.
Equipped with Viton (FKM) seals designated by the 'H' suffix, this cylinder is rated for high-temperature operation from 0 to +150 °C, making it suitable for autoclaves, foundries, or engine test stands. The 25 mm diameter piston rod provides robust push/pull stability, while the 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the load smoothly to protect the end caps during high-speed cycling.

The Viton seals allow this cylinder to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 150 °C, making it ideal for actuating dampers, diverters, or clamps in ovens, dryers, and heat-treatment lines.
With a 1300 mm stroke and 3927 N of force at 0.5 MPa, it excels at pushing heavy pallets, transferring large panels, or shifting loads between conveyor lanes in logistics and woodworking.
Delivering up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder provides the high clamping force needed for large assembly fixtures, lamination presses, or injection mold safety gates in hot manufacturing environments.
For applications needing slightly less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 125 mm bore increases it to 6136 N. Given the 1300 mm stroke, careful management of side loads is critical to prevent rod bending; an external guide rail or a guided cylinder configuration is strongly recommended to protect the rod bearing and seal.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: the 100 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model uses the standard PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread, and its total extended body length is approximately 1488 mm.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X1300H is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is exhausted or lost, the piston rod will drift or drop under load. For static load holding, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical rod lock.
