The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X152SCB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 152mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X152SCB is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 100 mm bore and 152 mm stroke suit medium-stroke clamping and pressing tasks where a compact tie-rod body is preferred.
This model includes a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position sensors and a rear double clevis (CB) mount for pivoting attachment. The 25 mm diameter rod and 29 mm air cushion provide reliable deceleration, while the PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread ensure straightforward pneumatic connections.

The 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa securely holds workpieces in CNC machining centres and welding jigs, with the CB clevis allowing the cylinder to pivot as the clamp engages.
Delivers a firm push to eject parts from conveyor lines or stamping dies. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing to confirm ejection before the next cycle.
Generates up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for pressing bearings, bushings, or pins into housings. The double clevis mount handles the slight arc motion common in toggle-press linkages.
Choose the SC100 when your load requires roughly 4000 N at standard line pressure; for lighter loads around 2500 N, step down to the SC80 bore. This 152 mm stroke is within the standard range, but ensure the rod is not subjected to side loads—if lateral forces are present, add an external guide or switch to a guided cylinder.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 152 mm stroke, PT port thread, CB rear double clevis mounting (F-SC100CB), and the -S magnet option for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 3927 N and pull force is 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 5497 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centred. For load holding without live pressure, you must add a pilot-operated check valve, external rod lock, or mechanical brake.
