About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225S
The AirTAC SC100X225S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 225 mm stroke, factory-equipped with a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it reaches 7068 N, placing it firmly in the heavy-automation force class.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 ports. The 29 mm air cushion at each end is adjustable, letting you dial in smooth deceleration for payloads up to its 801 kgf theoretical limit. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a compact footprint for its 1500 mm maximum standard stroke capability.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily raises loaded pallets or actuates heavy-duty stops on gravity and powered roller conveyors, with the magnetic piston confirming end-of-stroke for interlocking.
Clamping & Riveting
Delivers up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for pneumatic clamping, rivet setting, or press-fit assembly stations. The adjustable cushion protects tooling from impact shock at high cycle rates.
Baler & Compactor Gate
Operates discharge gates on waste balers and compactors. The built-in magnet lets you mount CMSG sensors externally to verify gate position in dusty, high-vibration environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X225S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs the step up from the SC80's 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter and speed is critical, stepping down to an 80 mm bore saves air and increases cycle rate. For strokes beyond 300 mm on this rod size, evaluate side-load and rod-bearing bending moments—an external linear guide or a guided-cylinder configuration prevents rod deflection under off-centre loads.
To replace an existing SC100X225S, match five points: 100 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic mounting style. The SC tie-rod design is shorter than ISO 15552 cylinders, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC100 tie-rod units.
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 SC100X225S 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet on the piston, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) and DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clip directly onto the barrel's sensor grooves without any modification.
