The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X200SN is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 200mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X200SN is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 200 mm stroke suits medium-travel clamping and pressing operations, while the 25 mm diameter piston rod provides robust resistance to bending under axial loads.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors, enabling precise end-of-stroke detection without external brackets. The NBR seal (-N suffix) offers reliable sealing for general industrial air service, and the standard PT1/2 port thread ensures straightforward pneumatic connection.

The 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa makes this cylinder ideal for pneumatic clamping fixtures in machining and welding cells, securely holding large workpieces during processing.
With its built-in magnet for sensor feedback, this actuator excels in high-speed sortation gates, reliably pushing defective or oversized items off a conveyor line with confirmed position signals.
Generating up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, the SC100X200SN can be used in pneumatic assembly presses for installing bearings, bushings, or pins into housings where controlled force is critical.
Select the SC100 when your application requires push forces in the 3927 N range at standard shop air. If your load is closer to 2500 N, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, evaluate side-load conditions carefully—an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is vulnerable to bending; use an external guide or linear bearing to protect the rod and gland seals.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the NBR seal material. This cylinder is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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. The SC100X200SN is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered, the piston can drift. For load holding without pressure, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical rod lock.
