The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1700SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1700mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1700SH is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an extended 1700 mm stroke, a made-to-order length beyond the standard 1500 mm maximum. It delivers a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, placing it in a high-force class for demanding linear motion.
This model is configured with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and features high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals (-H suffix), extending the operating range to 0–150 °C. The 25 mm diameter rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion are standard for the 100 mm bore, which uses PT1/2 ports.

Operating foundry clamps or kiln door mechanisms where ambient temperatures up to 150°C would degrade standard seals, leveraging the Viton seal package.
Moving heavy pallets or product stacks across a 1700 mm distance on a conveyor transfer car, using the high force at 0.7 MPa (5497 N) for reliable pushing.
Feeding large sheets into a thermoforming press with end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors, ensuring complete cycle verification.
Select the SC100 when your application requires forces in the 3927 N (push at 0.5 MPa) range. If this force is excessive, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces push force to 2513 N. For this 1700 mm stroke, a non-standard length, side-load management is critical; an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the 25 mm rod and rod bearing from bending moments. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 1700 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, built-in magnet, and Viton seals.
Quick checklist
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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No, a 1700 mm stroke with a 25 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-load bending. An external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler is essential to prevent rod bearing damage and ensure reliable operation.
