About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1500S
The SC100X1500S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 100 mm bore, 25 mm piston rod, and 1500 mm stroke suit long linear movements where a built-in magnet enables barrel-mounted CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for end-of-stroke detection.
This model uses PT1/2 ports and an M20x1.5 rod thread with a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the piston quietly. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1688 mm. The -S suffix provides a factory-installed magnet, eliminating the need for external switch brackets.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1500S Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
The 1500 mm stroke and 3927 N push force move heavy pallets or panels across wide conveyor gaps, with the built-in magnet confirming full extension and retraction.
Automated Warehouse Gantry
Drives a horizontal axis on a pick-and-place gantry. The -S magnet lets CMSG sensors verify position at both ends of the 1.5 m travel without external flags.
Large Panel Press Feed
Feeds large sheet-metal blanks into a stamping press. The 7068 N peak thrust at 0.9 MPa overcomes friction on long roller beds, and the adjustable cushion softens end-of-stroke shock.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1500S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs roughly 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your load is closer to 2500 N, stepping down to an SC80 (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) saves space and air consumption. For strokes of 1500 mm, confirm that the rod is adequately guided against side loads — long unsupported rods can bend under lateral force; consider an external guide or a guided cylinder if side loading is present.
For drop-in replacement, match five attributes: 100 mm bore, 1500 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the built-in magnet (-S). This cylinder is a genuine AirTAC SC tie-rod unit 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 SC100X1500S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 3927 N; at 0.7 MPa it is 5497 N; at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf. Pull force at 0.5 MPa is 3681 N.
No — the SC is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so mounting dimensions differ. It replaces another AirTAC SC100 of the same stroke, PT port, basic mount, and magnet option. For ISO 15552 interchangeability, use a different AirTAC series.
