About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X358TC
The AirTAC SC100X358TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. With a 100 mm bore and 358 mm stroke, this tie-rod actuator uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 port connections.
This model is configured with a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact for a long service life in demanding industrial applications.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X358TC Is Used
Conveyor Diverters
The pivoting TC mount and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa make this cylinder ideal for actuating heavy-duty conveyor line diverters and gates in material handling systems.
Clamping Fixtures
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for securing large weldments or castings during machining, with the trunnion mount allowing the cylinder body to self-align.
Agricultural Machinery
Suited for actuating pivoting linkages on harvesters or tillage equipment, where the robust tie-rod construction and PT ports withstand dirty, wet operating environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X358TC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 when your application requires a push force around 3927 N at standard 0.5 MPa supply. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces force to 2513 N, saving energy and space. For higher force demands, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure.
For this 358 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally if significant side forces are present. The 25 mm rod can experience bending moments on long unsupported strokes. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 358 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, centre trunnion mounting, and the absence of a magnetic piston.
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 SC100X358TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the cylinder produces 3927 N pushing force and 3681 N pulling force. 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.
Not directly. The TC mount integrates a centre trunnion for pivoting motion, whereas an LB foot mount fixes the cylinder to a flat surface. You must match the mounting style when replacing an existing cylinder. The correct foot-mount accessory is F-SC100LB.
