About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220STC
The SC100X220STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa), making it a strong choice for medium-to-heavy industrial linear tasks. With a 100 mm bore, 25 mm piston rod, and 220 mm stroke, its total extended body length reaches approximately 408 mm (188 mm body length A plus stroke), fitting well into compact machine frames.
This model ships with a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a centre trunnion pivot (TC mount, part F-SC100TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket for smooth swinging-load actuation. The adjustable air cushion at each end (29 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston quietly, and the PT1/2 ports with M20x1.5 rod thread ensure straightforward pneumatic connections.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220STC Is Used
Conveyor Diverters & Gates
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily actuates heavy diverter flaps or product gates on wide conveyor lines, while the TC trunnion mount allows the cylinder to pivot as the gate swings.
Clamping & Pressing Fixtures
Delivers up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for robust workpiece clamping or light press-fit assembly. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing to confirm clamp engagement before the machine cycle continues.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
Suited for chute controls or hopper door actuation on farming machinery. The TPU seals handle -20 to +70 °C, and the centre trunnion absorbs the pivoting motion common in linkage-driven mechanisms.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X220STC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs roughly 3927 N at 0.5 MPa; if you can work with 2513 N, stepping down to an SC80 reduces air consumption and physical size. For strokes of 300 mm or more, always evaluate side-load and rod-bearing bending—long unsupported rods can deflect under lateral force, so an external guide or a guided cylinder may be required.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, TC centre-trunnion mounting with TCM1 bracket, and the -S magnet for barrel-mounted sensors. This tie-rod SC cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 unit, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC or equivalent tie-rod design.

- ✓ 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 SC100X220STC FAQ
At 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, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X220STC is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve centres, the piston will drift. For load-holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical rod lock.
