The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X150H is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 150 mm stroke, factory-equipped with Viton (FKM) seals for reliable operation in high-temperature environments up to 150°C. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 port thread handle demanding push-pull tasks, delivering a theoretical push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa.
With a compact body length A of 188 mm, this cylinder fits into tight machine frames while providing an adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) to decelerate the piston smoothly at end-of-stroke. The SC100X150H is a genuine AirTAC product, ideal for hot-process automation where standard seals would degrade prematurely.

Viton seals enable the SC100X150H to operate continuously in ovens, autoclaves, and foundry equipment where ambient temperatures reach 150°C, providing consistent 3927 N push force for door lifts and damper controls.
With 7068 N of thrust available at 0.9 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder delivers the clamping force needed for hot-melt assembly fixtures, vulcanizing presses, and composite curing molds.
The FKM seal material resists aggressive chemical atmospheres better than standard TPU, making this cylinder suitable for actuating large quarter-turn valves or gate valves in chemical dosing and refining lines.
Choose the SC100X150H when your application requires high force at moderate speed in a hot environment. If 3927 N at 0.5 MPa is more thrust than needed, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher force demands, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the Viton seal designation (H). This cylinder does not include a built-in magnet; if sensor feedback is required, consider the -S variant or use external limit switches.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SC100X150H produces 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X150H is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is exhausted or the directional valve centers, the piston will drift or drop. For load-holding applications, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
