About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X223SN
The SC100X223SN is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, featuring a 100 mm bore and a 223 mm stroke. It generates a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for demanding linear motion tasks.
This model is configured with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling easy electrical position feedback. The NBR seals (-N suffix) provide reliable sealing for standard temperature applications, and the PT1/2 port threads ensure straightforward pneumatic connections. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion deliver smooth, controlled deceleration at the stroke ends.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X223SN Is Used
Pallet Stop and Lift
Deploy the SC100X223SN in conveyor systems for heavy-duty pallet stopping or lifting. Its 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa securely holds and raises loaded pallets, with the built-in magnet providing end-of-stroke confirmation to the control system.
Clamping and Pressing
Use this cylinder in automated clamping fixtures or small presses. The 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa provides ample power for holding workpieces during machining or assembly, while the adjustable cushioning ensures a smooth, low-impact clamping action.
Diverting Gates
Ideal for actuating heavy diverting gates in material handling chutes. The robust 25 mm rod and tie-rod construction withstand the repetitive impact, and the NBR seals offer a cost-effective solution for standard factory environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X223SN the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X223SN when your application requires a force in the 3900 N range at standard shop air pressure. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an SC80 bore reduces the push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, which may allow for a smaller, more energy-efficient cylinder. For heavier loads, the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure.
With a 223 mm stroke, the SC100's 25 mm rod is robust, but always check for side loads. If the load is not guided, side forces can cause rod bending and premature seal wear. For a direct replacement, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 223 mm stroke, PT port thread, the NBR seal material, and the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility.
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 SC100X223SN FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 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.
This cylinder is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder or a mechanically identical clone with the exact same specifications. You must verify the 100 mm bore, 223 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, NBR seals, and the presence of a built-in magnet for sensors. The SC series is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
