About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X430S
The AirTAC SC100X430S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm bore and 430 mm stroke, this tie-rod actuator is built for demanding linear motion tasks where position sensing is required, thanks to the integrated magnet.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 ports. The 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The total body length is 188 mm, extending to 618 mm at full stroke. Operating pressure spans 0.15–1.0 MPa with a standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C using TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X430S Is Used
Automated Sorting Gates
The 430 mm stroke and high force actuate diverter gates on wide conveyor lines. The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm gate position for reliable sortation control.
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Applies up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for welding fixtures or CNC machining. Magnetic piston sensors verify clamp engagement before the cycle starts.
Pallet Lift & Transfer
Provides the muscle for lifting or transferring pallets in material handling systems. The 430 mm stroke covers a full pallet width, and sensors detect end-of-travel.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X430S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs roughly 3927 N of push force at standard 0.5 MPa shop air. If you can accept a lower force of 2513 N, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces air consumption and physical size. For higher force requirements up to 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, the 125 mm bore is the next step up.
At a 430 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is extended significantly. Ensure side loads are minimized; if the load is not perfectly guided, use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bending stress on the rod bearing. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 430 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, and ensure the replacement cylinder also includes a built-in magnet for sensor compatibility.
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 SC100X430S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 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.
Yes. The 'S' suffix indicates a built-in magnet in the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be clamped directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position detection.
