The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1400 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1400mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X1400 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a long 1400 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa it generates a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion are designed to manage the inertia of large loads over this extended travel.
This cylinder uses a PT1/2 port and an M20x1.5 rod thread, with a body length A of 188 mm. The standard TPU/NBR seals give an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C. For a 1400 mm stroke within the 1500 mm maximum standard limit for this bore, it provides a total extended length of approximately 1588 mm, making it suitable for long-reach material handling and actuation tasks.

The 1400 mm stroke moves components between distant conveyor lines or workstations, using 3927 N of push force to reliably transfer heavy parts in automated assembly.
Delivers up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for pressing large panels or laminates, with the adjustable cushion decelerating the heavy tooling smoothly at the stroke end.
Ideal for pushing or ejecting pallets in automated warehouses, where the long stroke and high force class handle deep stacks and heavy loads with consistent pneumatic power.
The SC100 bore sits between the SC80 (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the SC125 (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa). If your load requires more than 3927 N of force, stepping up to the SC125 is recommended; for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC80 may suffice. At a 1400 mm stroke, the piston rod is highly extended. Side loads or off-centre forces can cause rod bending or bearing wear. Always use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to absorb lateral forces and protect the rod and seals.
To replace an existing SC100X1400, match five key points: the 100 mm bore, the 1400 mm stroke, the PT1/2 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the absence of a magnet. This ensures a direct dimensional and performance swap for another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, push force increases to 5497 N, and at the maximum 0.9 MPa, it reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
A 1400 mm stroke on a 25 mm rod creates a significant moment arm for any side load. You must guide the load externally with a linear rail or rod guide system. The cylinder should only provide push/pull force, not support lateral weight or off-axis forces, to prevent premature rod bearing failure.
