About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X315S
The SC100X315S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 315 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for mid-to-heavy automation tasks.
The built-in magnet (denoted by the -S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the tie-rod barrel, enabling precise, non-contact position sensing without external brackets. This genuine AirTAC SC unit operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa with standard PT1/2 ports.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X315S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift Gates
The 315 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa are well-suited for raising or stopping heavy pallets on conveyor lines, with the magnetic piston enabling end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
Press & Clamping Fixtures
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large workpieces during machining or assembly, while the adjustable cushion protects the tooling from impact damage.
Material Pusher & Diverters
Used to push 300 mm+ wide boxes or panels off a main line onto a branch conveyor. The integrated magnet simplifies sensor setup for mid-stroke and end-stroke position verification.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X315S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 when your application needs roughly 3927 N of push force at standard plant pressure; stepping down to an SC80 bore provides 2513 N, while moving up to an SC125 yields 6136 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For this 315 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to high side loads—if the load is not guided, consider an external linear guide or a guided-cylinder assembly to prevent rod bearing wear and bending.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 100 mm bore, 315 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. This is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC100X315S 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 reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes, if the original is an AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder with a 315 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, and a built-in magnet. This model is not a direct drop-in replacement for ISO 15552 profile cylinders due to different body dimensions.
