About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SH
The SC100X300SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 300 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 25 mm piston rod and PT1/2 port ensure robust air flow for demanding industrial sequences.
This model is equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors, and Viton (FKM) seals (-H suffix) that extend the operating temperature range to 0–150 °C. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end, protecting end caps during high-cycle operation.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SH Is Used
Hot Press Clamping
The Viton seals withstand 150°C ambient temperatures, making this cylinder ideal for clamping fixtures in heated laminating or thermoforming presses where standard seals would degrade.
High-Temperature Gate Actuation
Controls diverter gates on conveyors moving through drying ovens. The built-in magnet allows sensor feedback for gate position without physical contact in hot, dirty environments.
Autoclave Door Actuation
Operates reliably in sterilization equipment. The FKM seals resist steam and aggressive cleaning agents, while the 3927 N force securely clamps autoclave doors during pressurization.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SH the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application requires a push force between 3927 N (at 0.5 MPa) and 7068 N (at 0.9 MPa). If your load is lighter, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces air consumption while still providing 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. For heavier loads, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N at the same pressure.
At a 300 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loading. The 25 mm rod can bend under off-axis forces at full extension; use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if side loads are present. For direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting configuration.
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 SC100X300SH 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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 mounts. It directly replaces another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder with the same bore, stroke, PT port, magnet option, and basic mounting.
