About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X215STC
The SC100X215STC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa), built around a 25 mm diameter piston rod. Its 215 mm stroke sits well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 100 mm bore, making it a stock-configurable unit.
This model ships with a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a centre trunnion (TC) mount including the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC) for pivoting applications. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm) decelerates the piston quietly at end-of-travel, while the PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread keep connections standard.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X215STC Is Used
Conveyor Diverters & Gates
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa and centre trunnion pivot make this cylinder ideal for actuating heavy conveyor diverter arms and material gates that swing through an arc.
Clamping & Fixturing
With a built-in magnet for end-of-stroke sensing, the SC100X215STC confirms clamp closure on large weld fixtures and assembly jigs, ensuring cycle reliability.
Process Valve Actuation
The 7068 N thrust at 0.9 MPa operates large quarter-turn ball or butterfly valves via a linkage, with the trunnion mount absorbing reaction torque.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X215STC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs roughly 3900 N of push at standard plant pressure; stepping down to the SC80 bore drops force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to SC125 jumps it to 6136 N. The centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder to pivot during operation—ensure the trunnion pins are aligned and the load is guided to avoid side-loading the rod.
For this 215 mm stroke, side loads must be managed carefully. If the rod sees any lateral force, add an external guide or linear rail; the rod bearing is not designed to absorb bending moments. When replacing an existing cylinder, match bore (100 mm), stroke (215 mm), PT port thread, centre trunnion mounting, and the magnet option (-S) to retain sensor functionality.

- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X215STC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 3927 N; at 0.7 MPa it delivers 5497 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf. Pull force is slightly lower due to the 25 mm rod area: 3681 N at 0.5 MPa.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X215STC indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. You can clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel tie-rods to detect piston position without additional brackets.
