About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150SFA
The SC100X150SFA is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and 150 mm stroke, it uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 port connections.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a front rectangular flange (FA, part F-SC100FA) for secure panel mounting. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly, and the TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150SFA Is Used
Clamping & Fixturing
The 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa makes this cylinder ideal for heavy-duty workpiece clamping on CNC machining centers and welding fixtures, with magnetic sensors confirming jaw position.
Part Transfer & Ejection
Delivers a powerful, repeatable push to eject formed parts from large stamping dies or transfer heavy components between conveyor lines in automated assembly.
Press-Fit Assembly
Provides up to 7068 N of force for pressing bearings, bushings, or pins into housings. The front flange mount ensures rigid alignment against the press structure.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X150SFA the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 for applications needing around 4000 N of force at standard plant pressure. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an SC80 bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For heavier loads, the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure.
For this 150 mm stroke, side loading is typically not a concern, but always align the rod with the load path. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, FA front flange mount, and the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility.
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 SC100X150SFA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it delivers 3927 N pushing and 3681 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet inside the piston, allowing you to clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect end-of-stroke or intermediate positions.
