About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X222
The AirTAC SC100X222 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force when operated at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion are engineered for reliable mid-range industrial automation tasks requiring a 222 mm linear stroke.
This model features a 188 mm body length, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 410 mm. The standard PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread ensure straightforward pneumatic connections, while the TPU seals provide a dependable operating range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X222 Is Used
Material Handling Gates
Provides the high force needed to actuate diverter gates on conveyor systems, reliably sorting packages or bulk materials with a 222 mm stroke.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers a powerful 7068 N clamping force at 0.9 MPa, ideal for securely holding large workpieces during machining or welding processes.
Balers & Compactors
Used to drive the compression plate in small to medium balers, leveraging the 3927 N force at standard shop air to compact cardboard or plastics.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X222 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X222 for applications needing the force capacity of a 100 mm bore, which provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load requires less force, consider stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) to reduce air consumption. For a direct replacement, match five key points: the 100 mm bore, 222 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting configuration, and the absence of a magnet.
With a 222 mm stroke, the rod is well-supported within standard operating limits, but always ensure the load is guided and aligned axially to prevent bending moments on the 25 mm rod and premature seal wear. For side-loads, an external guide rail is recommended.
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 SC100X222 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, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter in overall length than a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder with the same stroke, port, and mounting.
