About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X360S
The SC100X360S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and a 360 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa). The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors on the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing, making it ideal for stroke-end confirmation in automated sequences.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end (29 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-cap impact. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 548 mm. Standard operating pressure is 0.15–1.0 MPa with TPU seals rated for -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X360S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift Gates
The 360 mm stroke and built-in magnet for sensor feedback make this cylinder suitable for raising or stopping heavy pallets on conveyor lines, where end-of-stroke confirmation is critical for safety interlocks.
Press-Fit & Assembly Fixtures
With 7068 N of force available at 0.9 MPa, the SC100X360S can drive press-fit tooling in automated assembly cells. The magnetic piston allows easy integration of position sensors to verify full insertion depth.
Baler & Compactor Ejectors
The robust 25 mm rod and high force output handle the demanding ejector cycles in recycling balers. The adjustable cushion absorbs the shock of ejecting dense material bales at high speed.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X360S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 bore when your application requires a push force between roughly 2500 N and 7000 N at standard plant air pressures. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an SC80 bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For heavier loads, the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. Always verify the rod bearing’s bending moment capacity at this 360 mm stroke; external linear guides or a guided cylinder are recommended if the load applies significant side force.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 360 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting configuration. This is a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC series units of the same specification.
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 SC100X360S FAQ
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 force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code SC100X360S indicates a built-in magnetic piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly onto the cylinder’s tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
