About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X475S
The SC100X475S delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a powerful workhorse for mid-to-heavy linear actuation. Its 25 mm diameter rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion handle the 475 mm stroke smoothly, while the built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection.
This double-acting tie-rod cylinder uses filtered air and operates reliably from -20 to +70 °C with its standard TPU seals. The PT1/2 ports and M20x1.5 rod thread are standard, and the body length A of 188 mm keeps the overall package compact for a 100 mm bore cylinder.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X475S Is Used
Material Handling & Sorting
Pushes heavy totes or diverts packages on conveyor lines with 3927 N of force, while the magnetic piston enables sensor-based position confirmation for automated sortation gates.
Press & Clamping Fixtures
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding workpieces during welding or machining. The adjustable cushion protects tooling from impact at the end of the 475 mm stroke.
Industrial Automation Platforms
Acts as a robust linear actuator for lifting or shifting heavy assemblies. The 25 mm rod and tie-rod construction provide rigidity, and the -S magnet enables seamless integration with PLC-controlled sensor networks.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X475S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact cylinder is sufficient, the SC80 bore offers 2513 N at the same pressure. At a 475 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to high side loads; consider an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial to prevent rod bearing wear and bending.
To replace an existing unit, match five points: 100 mm bore, 475 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic (no bracket) mounting style. This ensures a drop-in fit for another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder.
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 SC100X475S FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, push force is 3927 N and pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X475S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel's sensor groove to detect piston position without additional brackets.
