The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X320SCB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 320mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X320SCB 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 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 320 mm stroke, this model provides a robust linear motion solution for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks, supported by a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to absorb energy and reduce end-of-stroke impact.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling precise position feedback without external brackets. The rear double clevis mounting (CB, using bracket F-SC100CB) allows the cylinder body to pivot, accommodating angular movement in the application. The standard TPU seals provide reliable operation within a temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

The 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa makes this cylinder ideal for heavy-duty part pushers and reject stations on conveyor lines, where the rear clevis mount allows it to pivot freely as it cycles.
With its rear double clevis (CB) mount, the SC100X320SCB is perfectly suited for driving robust toggle clamps or welding fixtures that require the cylinder body to swing through an arc during actuation.
The combination of high force and a pivoting rear mount makes this cylinder a reliable choice for actuating bin-tipping mechanisms, where it can lift and rotate heavy containers with ease.
For applications requiring slightly less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore provides 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. This 100 mm bore model is a strong choice when the load demands the higher 3927 N output. The 320 mm stroke is a standard length within the 1500 mm maximum for this bore, ensuring good availability.
At a 320 mm stroke, ensure the 25 mm rod is adequately supported if significant side loads are present; an external linear guide is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 320 mm stroke, PT port thread, the rear double clevis (CB) mounting accessory, and the integrated magnet for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the theoretical 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, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder of the same 100 mm bore, 320 mm stroke, PT port, rear double clevis mount, and magnet-equipped configuration.
