About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225N
The SC100X225N is a robust double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 225 mm stroke, delivering a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 port ensure efficient air flow for demanding industrial tasks.
Equipped with NBR (nitrile) seals, this model is well-suited for environments requiring standard oil-resistant sealing. The adjustable air cushion at each end, with a 29 mm cushion length, provides smooth deceleration, protecting the end caps and reducing operational noise.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225N Is Used
Heavy Part Transfer
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa reliably shifts large components or heavy pallets across conveyor junctions and transfer stations.
Industrial Pressing
Ideal for clamping and pressing operations in woodworking or metal fabrication, providing up to 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa for secure holding.
Material Feeding
Pushes heavy raw stock or assemblies into machining centers with consistent, controlled force, integrating easily with automated production lines.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225N the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X225N for applications needing high force in a compact tie-rod design. If your force requirement is lower, consider stepping down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa); for even greater force, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N. For this 225 mm stroke, side-load forces must be managed externally, as the piston rod bearing is not designed to support lateral loads.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key specifications: 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, NBR seal material, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. This cylinder is a direct replacement for another AirTAC SC100X225N.

- ✓ 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 SC100X225N FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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 reaches 7068 N.
No. The SC100X225N is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The piston will drift or the load will drop. For load holding without live pressure, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve.
