About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X230SH
The SC100X230SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 230 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. This model includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position sensors and is fitted with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals (-H), extending the operating range to 0–150 °C for demanding thermal environments.
With a 25 mm diameter piston rod and M20×1.5 rod thread, the cylinder provides robust linear guidance. The body length A is 188 mm, yielding a total extended length of approximately 418 mm. Its adjustable pneumatic cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke ends, and the PT1/2 port thread ensures reliable air connections.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X230SH Is Used
High-Temperature Actuation
Viton seals enable reliable operation in ovens, autoclaves, and foundry equipment where ambient temperatures reach up to 150 °C, maintaining consistent 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa.
Sensor-Integrated Clamping
The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm clamp/unclamp status on fixtures and presses, preventing cycle errors in automated machining cells.
Heavy Part Sorting Gate
With 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder drives diverter gates on high-temperature conveyor lines, handling bulky components without stalling.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X230SH the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa). If your load exceeds 3927 N, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure. This 230 mm stroke is within the standard range for a 100 mm bore (max 1500 mm). To ensure a correct drop-in replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 230 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. For strokes over 300 mm, evaluate side-load conditions—long unsupported rods can bend under lateral force, so consider an external guide or guided cylinder.
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 SC100X230SH 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.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It directly replaces another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder with the same bore, stroke, PT port, magnet option, and basic mounting.
