The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1780S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1780mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1780S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an extended 1780 mm stroke, which exceeds the standard maximum of 1500 mm and is manufactured as a non-standard order. It delivers a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be mounted directly on the tie-rod barrel for precise position feedback. The standard TPU seals provide an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C, and the PT1/2 port threads ensure straightforward pneumatic connections.

Moves heavy bins or pallets across wide conveyor gaps, using its 1780 mm reach and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa for reliable transfer operations.
Positions large weldments or tooling with a long, controlled stroke. The built-in magnet provides end-of-stroke confirmation via DMSG sensors in automated cells.
Operates tall diverter gates in bulk material handling lines, using its high force capacity and sensor-ready design for sequenced, high-cycle sorting tasks.
For applications requiring a force between the 2513 N of the 80 mm bore and the 6136 N of the 125 mm bore, the SC100 is the optimal choice. The 1780 mm stroke is non-standard and requires careful management of side loads; an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the 25 mm rod and rod bearing from bending moments.
When replacing this cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 1780 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting configuration, and the integrated magnet sensor option to ensure full functional compatibility with your existing setup.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 3927 N pushing and 3681 N pulling. 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.
A stroke of 1780 mm on a 25 mm rod is highly susceptible to side loading and buckling. You must use an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder assembly to absorb transverse forces and protect the rod bearing from premature wear and bending.
