The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225CB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 225mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X225CB is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 225 mm stroke. It generates a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa), making it a powerful actuator for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks.
This specific model is configured with a CB rear double clevis mount (fork/lug style, accessory F-SC100CB) for pivoting applications, and comes standard with TPU seals and PT1/2 port threads. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion ensure robust, decelerated end-of-stroke performance.

Actuates pivoting chutes, hopper doors, or grading arms on harvesters and planters, where the rear clevis mount allows the cylinder to swing with the mechanism.
Powers heavy-duty diverter gates on conveyor lines, using the high 3927 N push force to redirect pallets or bulk materials at 0.5 MPa supply pressure.
Provides the clamping or pressing action in a weld fixture or small assembly press, with the CB mount enabling a compact, pivoting installation on the machine frame.
For applications requiring a pivoting mount at the cap end, the CB rear double clevis is ideal, allowing the cylinder body to swing. If your force needs are lower, the 80 mm bore SC80 series provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; for higher demands, the 125 mm bore steps up to 6136 N. Always ensure the clevis pin is properly sized for the load.
For this 225 mm stroke, side loads must be avoided to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. If the load is not perfectly guided, use an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler. To replace an existing cylinder, match these five points exactly: 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, CB rear double clevis mounting, and the absence of a magnet on the piston.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical 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.
Yes, the 'CB' suffix specifies a rear double clevis mount. This provides a fork/lug connection at the rear cap, allowing the entire cylinder body to pivot. The matching accessory part code is F-SC100CB.
