About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220S
The SC100X220S is a 100 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 220 mm stroke suits medium-reach clamping, pressing, and material-handling tasks, while the built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for reliable end-of-stroke detection.
This tie-rod cylinder uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at each end, reducing impact noise and wear. Total body length A is 188 mm, giving an extended length of approximately 408 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220S Is Used
Automated Clamping
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa securely holds workpieces in CNC fixtures and welding jigs, with sensor feedback confirming clamp position.
Part Transfer & Sorting
A 220 mm stroke pushes components between conveyor lanes or into sorting bins. The built-in magnet enables precise mid-stroke or end-stroke sensing.
Light Press-Fit Assembly
Delivers up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for pressing bearings, bushings, or dowels into housings on assembly lines.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220S the Right Cylinder?
For higher force at the same pressure, step up to the SC125 bore (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC80 bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa. The 220 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 100 mm bore.
When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic mounting style. The SC100 is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC100X220S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 5497 N. The pull force on the return stroke is 3681 N at 0.5 MPa due to the 25 mm rod reducing the piston area on the rod side.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X220S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
