About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X320FA
The SC100X320FA is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 320 mm stroke. It generates a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa), making it suitable for medium-to-heavy industrial linear motion tasks.
This model features an FA front rectangular flange (F-SC100FA) for rigid panel or bulkhead mounting, and a 25 mm diameter chrome-plated piston rod with M20x1.5 threads. The cylinder body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 508 mm, with an adjustable pneumatic cushion of 29 mm at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X320FA Is Used
Conveyor Diverters
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa reliably actuates heavy-duty gates and diverters on material handling lines, directing pallets or large packages with authority.
Press-Fit Assembly
Delivers a controlled 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa for pressing bearings, bushings, or pins into machined housings in automated assembly cells.
Industrial Clamping
Provides strong, stable clamping for large workpieces during welding, machining, or woodworking, with the front flange ensuring a rigid, fixed mounting point.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X320FA the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. If a lower force and a more compact body are required, the SC80 bore delivers 2513 N at the same pressure. Always match bore, stroke, PT port thread, FA front flange mounting, and the non-magnet configuration when replacing an existing unit.
With a 320 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loads. Long, unsupported strokes can cause rod bending and premature bearing wear. If the load path is not perfectly linear, use an external linear guide or consider a guided cylinder to protect the rod and seals.
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 SC100X320FA FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC100 cylinder with matching stroke, PT ports, and FA front flange mount.
