About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X355S
The SC100X355S delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa) from its 100 mm bore, making it a strong actuator for medium-heavy industrial tasks. Its 355 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard range for this bore, and the 25 mm diameter rod provides solid column strength for linear moves.
This model includes the -S suffix, meaning a built-in magnet is fitted on the piston. That lets you clamp CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed or solid-state sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke or mid-position sensing without external brackets. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 543 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X355S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily raises or stops heavy pallets on conveyor lines, with the 355 mm stroke providing ample lift height for diverters.
Clamping & Pressing
Delivers up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for pneumatic clamping fixtures or light assembly presses, with the built-in magnet enabling sensor confirmation of jaw position.
Material Feed Systems
Ideal for pushing heavy billets or sheets into machining centres, where the 25 mm rod resists buckling and the 355 mm stroke handles deep feed requirements.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X355S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 when your load needs roughly 4000 N at standard shop air; if you can drop to about 2500 N, the smaller SC80 bore saves space and weight. For strokes of 300 mm or more, always check side-load conditions — a 355 mm stroke with a 25 mm rod can experience bending stress if the load is not guided. Use an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder when side forces are present.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 355 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and basic mounting (no bracket). This is a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile unit, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC of the same configuration.
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 SC100X355S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 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. You can attach AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly to the barrel to detect piston position without extra mounting hardware.
