About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1550S
The AirTAC SC100X1550S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an extended 1550 mm non-standard stroke, delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to mount directly on the tie-rod barrel for precise end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position feedback.
With a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 port threads, the cylinder body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1738 mm. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at each end, protecting end caps during high-cycle operation. As a made-to-order stroke exceeding the standard 1500 mm maximum, this unit suits special-purpose machinery requiring an unusually long linear reach.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1550S Is Used
Long-Reach Material Pusher
The 1550 mm stroke pushes pallets or heavy bins across wide roller conveyors in automated warehouses, with the built-in magnet confirming full extension and retraction.
Vertical Panel Lift
Raises and lowers large panels or doors in industrial enclosures. The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa handles heavy sheet metal, while sensors verify the open/closed position.
Grain Silo Gate Actuator
Operates a remote slide gate on a silo or hopper discharge chute. The long stroke provides full gate travel, and the magnetic piston enables remote position monitoring via EMSG sensors.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1550S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 bore when your application needs around 3927 N of force at 0.5 MPa; for lighter loads, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) reduces air consumption and physical size. For higher force, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure. At 1550 mm stroke, the long unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under side load—always use an external linear guide or rod-alignment coupler to protect the rod bearing and piston seals from premature wear. To match this exact configuration, ensure the replacement cylinder shares the 100 mm bore, 1550 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, built-in magnet, and basic tie-rod mounting.
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 SC100X1550S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa supply pressure, the SC100 bore generates 5497 N of push force. The theoretical maximum push force at 1.0 MPa is 7068 N, but the recommended operating range is 0.15–1.0 MPa.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. You must replace it with another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder matching the 1550 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, and built-in magnet.
