About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X175
The SC100X175 is a 100 mm bore, 175 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series. At 0.5 MPa it provides a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N, placing it in a heavy-duty force class suitable for pressing, clamping, and lifting medium-to-large assemblies.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end is 29 mm long, and the body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 363 mm. Standard TPU seals support an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X175 Is Used
Pallet Stop & Transfer
Raises and lowers heavy pallet stops on conveyor lines, using the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to reliably halt and release loaded pallets.
Assembly Press Feed
Pushes components into fixtures with nearly 4000 N of force at standard line pressure, ideal for press-fit operations in automotive sub-assembly.
Clamp Actuation
Drives a heavy-duty toggle clamp in a welding cell, holding large fabrications securely with the 100 mm bore cylinder's substantial force output.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X175 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100X175 when your application needs roughly 4000 N of push force at standard plant pressure. If you can accept a smaller envelope, stepping down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) saves space and weight. For higher force, the 125 mm bore delivers 6136 N.
For a 175 mm stroke, rod bearing support is generally adequate for axial loads, but any significant side force requires an external guide or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting (no factory bracket), and the absence of a magnet.
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 SC100X175 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar) supply pressure, the SC100X175 produces a theoretical push force of 5497 N. The pull force on the return stroke is 3681 N at the same pressure.
No, this specific SC100X175 code does not include the -S suffix, so it is supplied without a built-in magnet. To use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, order model SC100X175-S which has a magnet integrated into the piston.
