The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X320SN 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 AirTAC SC100X320SN is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm bore and 320 mm stroke, it uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 port connections.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the barrel for non-contact position feedback. The -N suffix specifies NBR (nitrile) seals, suitable for standard industrial temperature ranges of -20 to +70 °C. The adjustable pneumatic cushion at each end (29 mm length) decelerates the piston to reduce end-of-stroke impact.

Provides the 3927 N push force at standard plant pressure to lift and transfer loaded pallets in automated logistics systems.
Used in welding and assembly jigs where 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa secures large workpieces, with sensor confirmation of clamp position.
Operates heavy-duty gates on wide conveyors, with the magnet enabling end-of-travel sensing for sequencing with other automation.
For applications needing slightly less force, the 80 mm bore SC80 series provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 125 mm bore steps up to 6136 N. At a 320 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is robust, but significant side loading should be managed with an external guide or linear rail to prevent rod bearing wear and bending. When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 320 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensors, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (standard plant air), the push force is 3927 N and pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet in the piston, making it compatible with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors that clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for position feedback.
