About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220
The AirTAC SC100X220 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and 220 mm stroke, this model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 ports, making it a robust choice for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks.
This tie-rod cylinder has a body length A of 188 mm and an adjustable air cushion of 29 mm to decelerate the piston smoothly at end-of-stroke. The SC100X220 is built with TPU seals for a standard operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C and uses the default PT thread for its ports.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220 Is Used
Pallet Stop & Transfer
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa is ideal for stopping and transferring heavy pallets on conveyor lines, providing reliable, repeatable motion in material handling systems.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Use the SC100X220 for powerful workpiece clamping in CNC machining or welding fixtures. Its 25 mm rod resists bending under high clamping forces, ensuring stable part holding.
Press & Assembly Tool Actuation
With a 7068 N theoretical push at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder suits small pneumatic presses, riveting tools, and component assembly stations requiring a forceful, controlled linear stroke.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, the SC125 series offers 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. If a lighter, more compact solution is acceptable, the SC80 provides 2513 N. This 220 mm stroke is within the standard range for the 100 mm bore. To ensure a correct replacement, match these five points: 100 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the specific mounting accessory (this is a basic model), and the absence of a magnet sensor option.
Quick checklist
- ✓ 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 SC100X220 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. The maximum operating push force at 0.9 MPa is 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. As a standard double-acting cylinder, the SC100X220 will drift or drop if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke end. For load holding, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
