The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X1880SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 1880mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X1880SH is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and an extended 1880 mm stroke, this model is built for applications requiring long linear travel with significant force, such as material handling or large gate actuation.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and Viton (FKM) seals (-H suffix) that shift the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C, making it suitable for high-temperature environments. The 25 mm diameter piston rod provides robust push/pull capability, and the adjustable pneumatic cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston at stroke ends to reduce impact. As a non-standard stroke exceeding the 1500 mm maximum, this is a made-to-order item.

Pushes or pulls heavy pallets and components across extended distances on conveyor lines, leveraging the 7068 N force at 0.9 MPa.
Operates a sliding gate or damper in a hot environment up to 150°C, with Viton seals ensuring reliable performance and sensor feedback confirming position.
Directs heavy items between lanes in a sorting system, using the long 1880 mm stroke to cover wide conveyor spans with a single actuator.
For applications needing slightly less force, the 80 mm bore SC80 series provides 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a stroke of 1880 mm is essential, ensure the load is guided externally; a rod this long is susceptible to bending under side loads, and an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the rod bearing and seals. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 1880 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet for sensors, and the Viton seal material for high-temperature compatibility.
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 reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. For any stroke exceeding 300 mm, and especially for a non-standard 1880 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is vulnerable to bending and buckling under side loads. An external guide rail or a guided cylinder is required to prevent damage to the rod, bearing, and seals.
