The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X210TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 210mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X210TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa), making it a robust actuator for medium-to-heavy linear tasks. Its 25 mm diameter rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth end-of-stroke deceleration, while the centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder to pivot as it strokes.
With a 100 mm bore and 210 mm stroke, this model falls well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the SC100 series. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 398 mm. The PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread ensure straightforward pneumatic connections and load attachment.

The centre trunnion mount allows the SC100X210TC to pivot freely, making it perfect for actuating diverter gates or sorting paddles on medium-duty conveyor lines.
With 3927 N of force at standard line pressure, this cylinder provides the consistent, controlled clamping power needed for holding parts in welding or assembly jigs.
The robust tie-rod design and 100 mm bore handle the dusty, demanding conditions of farm machinery, such as controlling chute doors or bale handling arms.
Choose the SC100X210TC when your application requires a pivoting actuator with substantial force. If 3927 N at 0.5 MPa exceeds your needs, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher force, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N at the same pressure.
This model includes the TC centre trunnion mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC100TC), ideal for swinging or pivoting loads. When replacing, match all five key points: 100 mm bore, 210 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion mounting, and the absence of a magnet. For strokes over 300 mm, consider an external guide to protect the rod from bending under side loads.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder provides 3927 N pushing force and 3681 N pulling force. At the maximum 0.9 MPa operating pressure, the pushing force increases to 7068 N.
No. Like all standard double-acting cylinders, the SC100X210TC will drift if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centred. It relies on continuous air pressure to maintain position. For load holding, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
