About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X310
The SC100X310 is a robust 100 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 310 mm stroke, delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 port provide the flow capacity needed for consistent, powerful linear actuation in industrial machinery.
This tie-rod cylinder includes a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The body length A is 188 mm, making the total extended length approximately 498 mm. With a standard TPU seal, it operates reliably from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X310 Is Used
Pallet & Case Handling
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily lifts and transfers heavy pallets or packed cases on conveyor lines, providing the mid-range power needed for logistics automation.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Ideal for welding jigs and assembly fixtures, the 100 mm bore applies consistent clamping pressure to hold large fabrications securely during machining or joining processes.
Compaction & Pressing
With 7068 N of force available at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder suits light industrial presses for compacting waste, forming sheet metal, or laminating composite layers.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X310 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, the 125 mm bore SC125 series offers 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa. If a smaller footprint is required, the 80 mm bore SC80 provides 2513 N at the same pressure. Always match the bore, 310 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, and basic mounting when replacing an existing SC100 cylinder.
At a 310 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is well-supported for axial loads, but any significant side loading requires an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler to prevent bending stress on the rod bearing and premature seal wear.
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 SC100X310 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. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
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 is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT1/2 ports, and basic mounting.
