About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X145S
The SC100X145S is a 100 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa operating pressure. Its 145 mm stroke sits comfortably within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, and the 25 mm diameter piston rod provides robust linear guidance for medium-duty actuation tasks.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (suffix -S), this model accepts CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors that clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the 100 mm piston over a 29 mm cushion length, reducing end-of-stroke impact without locking the load.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X145S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Transfer
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily raises or stops heavy pallets on conveyor lines. The built-in magnet allows end-of-stroke sensing to confirm pallet position before transfer.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large weldments or castings during machining. Magnetic sensors verify clamp engagement before the cycle starts.
Baler & Compactor Ejection
The 25 mm rod and tie-rod construction handle the repetitive shock of ejecting compacted material. Adjustable cushioning softens the return stroke, extending seal life in dusty environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X145S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs around 3927 N of push force at standard plant air pressure. If you can work with roughly 2513 N, stepping down to an SC80 reduces physical size and air consumption. For strokes of 145 mm, the standard tie-rod construction is generally sufficient, but always check for side loads—if the rod sees lateral force, add an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing and piston seals.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 145 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting style. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC100X145S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), the cylinder pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. You can directly clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors onto the barrel's sensor groove to detect piston position without additional brackets.
