About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150S
The SC100X150S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, making it a robust actuator for medium-to-heavy linear tasks. Its 150 mm stroke sits well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 100 mm bore, and the built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for reliable end-of-stroke detection.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 threads and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke ends to reduce noise and wear. Body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 338 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150S Is Used
Material Handling Gates
The 3927 N push force easily operates diverter gates and stops on conveyor lines. The built-in magnet enables sensor feedback for automated sortation control.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers stable, high-force clamping for CNC machining fixtures and welding jigs. Magnetic piston sensors confirm clamp engagement before the cycle starts.
Press & Assembly Tools
Suitable for small pneumatic presses and assembly stations requiring up to 7068 N of force. The adjustable cushion protects tooling from impact damage at cycle end.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs push force between 3927 N (at 0.5 MPa) and 7068 N (at 0.9 MPa). If you can step down to a 80 mm bore, force drops to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to a 125 mm bore increases force to 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. For this 150 mm stroke, side loading is typically minimal, but always centre the load axially to protect the rod bearing.
To match an existing cylinder, verify five points: 100 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic mounting configuration. The SC series 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 SC100X150S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X150S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without external brackets.
