About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SN
The AirTAC SC100X300SN is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a 300 mm stroke, this model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 port threads, making it a robust choice for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling precise end-of-stroke detection without external brackets. The NBR seal (-N suffix) provides reliable sealing for standard industrial environments, and the cylinder body length A is 188 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 488 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SN Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift Gates
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa provides ample power for raising or stopping heavy pallets on conveyor lines, with the 300 mm stroke offering sufficient lift height for diverters.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Ideal for industrial jigs and welding fixtures, the SC100X300SN applies consistent, high clamping force. The built-in magnet allows sensors to confirm clamp engagement, a critical safety interlock.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
With NBR seals for standard temperature ranges and a robust tie-rod design, this cylinder reliably operates chute gates or bin diverters in dusty, high-vibration agricultural processing environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X300SN the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa), or move up to a 125 mm bore (6136 N at 0.5 MPa) for a significant power increase. At a 300 mm stroke, side-loading on the 25 mm rod becomes a key design consideration; always guide the load externally or use a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five critical points: 100 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the NBR seal material. This tie-rod cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile and is a direct dimensional match only for another AirTAC SC100 series unit with the same suffix options.
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 SC100X300SN 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, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X300SN is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. For load-holding safety, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve.
