The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X205S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 205mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X205S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 205 mm non-standard stroke. At 0.5 MPa air pressure, it generates a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N, placing it in a high-force class suitable for pressing, clamping, and lifting medium-to-heavy tooling.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 port connections. The built-in magnet (denoted by the -S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. Its adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at each end of travel.

Deploys a 3927 N push force to raise or stop heavy pallets on conveyor lines, with magnetic sensors confirming the raised and lowered positions for interlock safety.
Provides consistent clamping pressure for large weldments or wood panels in assembly jigs, where the 205 mm stroke offers ample clearance for part loading and unloading.
Delivers the controlled linear force needed to press bearings or bushings into housings, using the adjustable cushion to soften the impact at full insertion depth.
Select the SC100X205S when your application requires approximately 3900 N of push force and a 205 mm stroke. For a step down in force, the SC80 series delivers 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; for a step up, the SC125 series provides 6136 N. Since this is a non-standard stroke exceeding typical catalog lengths, confirm lead time with your AirTAC distributor.
For strokes over 300 mm on this bore, side loads become a critical design factor. Always use an external guide or a guided cylinder assembly to protect the 25 mm rod and bearing from bending moments. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 205 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting style, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 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.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code SC100X205S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
