The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X350TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 350mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X350TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 350 mm working stroke. At 0.5 MPa air pressure it generates 3927 N of push force, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa the thrust reaches 7068 N, making it a strong candidate for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks.
This model is factory-configured with a TC centre trunnion mount (supplied with the TCM1 bracket, order code F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder body to pivot as the rod extends and retracts. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm air cushion at each end help manage inertia, while the PT1/2 port thread connects to standard pneumatic fittings. With a body length A of 188 mm, the total extended length is approximately 538 mm.

The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa and pivoting TC mount make this cylinder ideal for actuating diverter flaps or gates on material handling conveyors, where the cylinder body needs to swing through an arc.
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large workpieces during welding, assembly, or machining. The trunnion mount simplifies integration into pivoting clamp arms.
Suitable as a pneumatic power source for small forming dies or press tools requiring a consistent 350 mm stroke. The adjustable air cushion protects tooling by decelerating the 25 mm rod at end-of-stroke.
Choose the SC100 when your load requires the 3927 N push force available at 0.5 MPa; for lower force needs around 2513 N, stepping down to an 80 mm bore saves space and air consumption. With a 350 mm stroke on a 25 mm rod, side loads must be avoided—if the load is not guided externally, the rod bearing can experience excessive bending stress. Always use an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler for unsupported loads.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and confirm the magnet requirement (this model has no built-in magnet). The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X350TC is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve is centred, the piston will drift. For load holding, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical rod lock.
