About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X45TC
The SC100X45TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa), ideal for short-throw clamping and positioning tasks. Its 25 mm rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration in a compact 188 mm body length.
This model includes the TC centre trunnion mount with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. Standard PT ports and TPU seals suit filtered-air systems from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X45TC Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Applies up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for fixture clamping and workpiece holding in machining centres.
Pivoting Press Actuation
The TC trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to swing, ideal for toggle presses and linkage-driven assembly tools.
Part Stops and Diverters
Rapid 45 mm stroke positions stops or gates on conveyor lines, handling high-cycle sorting tasks.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X45TC the Right Cylinder?
For higher force, step up to the 125 mm bore (6136 N at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter frame, the 80 mm bore offers 2513 N. The 45 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum for this bore.
When replacing, match five points: 100 mm bore, 45 mm stroke, PT port thread, TC centre trunnion mounting, and confirm the magnet requirement (this model has no built-in magnet).
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 SC100X45TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it produces 3927 N extending and 3681 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N.
Yes, the TC suffix indicates a centre trunnion mount. It ships with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC) and is designed for applications where the cylinder body must swing through an arc.
