About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X470STC
The AirTAC SC100X470STC is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a 470 mm stroke, this model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 port threads, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate end-of-stroke impact.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and the centre trunnion (TC) mounting style, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC). The trunnion pivot allows the cylinder body to swing, making it ideal for applications requiring angular movement during actuation. The body length A is 188 mm, with standard TPU seals rated for -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X470STC Is Used
Material Handling Gates
The 470 mm stroke and trunnion mount allow this cylinder to pivot a diverter gate on a conveyor line, sorting packages with the high force needed for heavy cartons.
Welding Fixture Clamping
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa. The magnetic piston enables sensor confirmation of clamp engagement before a robotic welding cycle starts.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
Used to pivot a discharge chute on a harvester. The centre trunnion mount handles the swinging motion, while the TPU seals withstand dusty, ambient-temperature environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X470STC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 when your application needs force in the 3900-7000 N range. If your load requires less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (SC80) provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, reducing air consumption. For higher force, the 125 mm bore (SC125) offers 6136 N at the same pressure. At a 470 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loads; an external guide rail or a guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 470 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with TCM1 bracket, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility. This tie-rod cylinder is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles.
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 SC100X470STC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, 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 reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke end—it is not a locking or holding brake. For load holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod lock.
