About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1300STC
The SC100X1300STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa) from its 100 mm bore. With a 1300 mm stroke, this model is built for long-travel linear tasks, featuring a 25 mm diameter chrome-plated rod and PT1/2 ports for reliable air flow.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for mounting CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors directly on the tie-rod barrel, and a centre trunnion mount (TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, protecting the end caps during high-speed cycles.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1300STC Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
The 1300 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa shift heavy pallets or panels between conveyor lines, with the centre trunnion mount absorbing alignment shifts.
Automated Welding Fixtures
Clamps large weldments with controlled force. The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm full extension and retraction for robotic weld sequencing.
Vertical Lift Gates
Raises and lowers heavy industrial doors or gates. The adjustable cushion decelerates the 25 mm rod smoothly at each end of the 1300 mm travel, reducing wear.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1300STC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 when your application needs around 3927 N of force at standard plant pressure; stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 125 mm bore increases it to 6136 N. For this 1300 mm stroke, ensure the rod is externally guided or the load is perfectly axial—a 25 mm rod extended over a metre is vulnerable to bending under side load, and an external guide or a guided cylinder should be used to protect the rod bearing.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the TCM1 bracket, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility. This tie-rod cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile and is not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard.
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 SC100X1300STC FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar), the theoretical push force is 5497 N. The maximum operating force at 0.9 MPa is 7068 N. Always factor in a safety margin for dynamic loads.
No. The SC100X1300STC is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centred. To hold a load without live pressure, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
