The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1650S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1650mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1650S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an extended 1650 mm stroke, making it a non-standard order item built for applications requiring a long reach. It delivers a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads.
This model includes a built-in magnet (suffix -S), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the tie-rod barrel for precise position feedback. The body length A is 188 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 1838 mm. With PT1/2 ports and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion, it is designed to decelerate large inertial loads smoothly at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.

The 1650 mm stroke is ideal for pushing or pulling products across wide conveyor gaps or transferring parts between distant stations in automated packaging lines.
Clamps and positions large workpieces in welding cells. The built-in magnet enables sensor feedback to confirm clamp engagement at the full 1650 mm extension.
Operates slide gates at the bottom of large silos or bulk bag unloaders, providing the high 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shear through packed material.
Select the SC100 for applications needing a push force around 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If your force requirement is lower, the SC80 bore provides 2513 N; for higher demands, step up to the SC125 bore at 6136 N. This 1650 mm stroke exceeds the standard maximum of 1500 mm for the 100 mm bore and is therefore a made-to-order length.
For any stroke over 300 mm, particularly with a 25 mm rod, carefully evaluate side loads. Long, unsupported rods are susceptible to bending under lateral force, which can damage the rod bearing and seals. Always use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to absorb side loads, ensuring the rod is only subjected to pure axial push/pull forces. When replacing this cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 1650 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the -S magnet option for sensors, and the basic mounting configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No, the maximum standard stroke for a 100 mm bore SC cylinder is 1500 mm. A 1650 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length. For long strokes like this, an external guide mechanism is strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and ensure long seal life.
