About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X530S
The SC100X530S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 530 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The built-in magnet (suffix -S) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke or mid-position detection without external brackets.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 port connections. The adjustable air cushion at each end provides a 29 mm deceleration zone to absorb kinetic energy smoothly. With a body length of 188 mm, the total extended length is approximately 718 mm. As a genuine AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder, it offers a compact, non-ISO 15552 footprint ideal for industrial automation tasks requiring high force and sensor feedback.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X530S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift Gates
The 530 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa make the SC100X530S ideal for raising or stopping heavy pallets on conveyor lines, with the built-in magnet confirming gate position.
Heavy Component Clamping
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for securing large weldments or castings in machining fixtures, while magnetic sensors verify the clamp is fully engaged.
Baler & Compactor Ejection
Provides the long ejection stroke needed to push compacted material bales out of industrial balers, with the -S magnet enabling automated cycle counting via barrel-mounted sensors.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X530S the Right Cylinder?
The SC100 bore sits in the high-force mid-range, generating 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires even greater force, stepping up to the SC125 bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure. For lower force needs, the SC80 bore delivers 2513 N. Always match the replacement cylinder across five key points: 100 mm bore, 530 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting style. For this 530 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loads; if lateral forces are present, install an external linear guide or pair the cylinder with a guided actuator to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
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 SC100X530S FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the cylinder generates 3927 N of pushing force and 3681 N of pulling force. 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 SC100X530S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG series sensors directly onto the cylinder's tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without needing external limit switches or mounting hardware.
