About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X580S
The SC100X580S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, delivering a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm bore and a 580 mm stroke, this model is built for demanding linear applications requiring significant power and a mid-to-long travel distance.
The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the barrel for precise, non-contact position sensing. The cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread, a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end, and a PT1/2 port for reliable pneumatic connections.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X580S Is Used
Pallet Stop & Lift Gates
The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa and 580 mm stroke is ideal for raising heavy pallet stops or lift-and-transfer gates in automated conveyor lines, with sensors confirming the raised and lowered positions.
Heavy-Duty Clamping & Pressing
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large weldments, composite layup tools, or assembly fixtures. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke verification for safety interlocks.
Bin Diverter & Sortation Gate
Actuates a large diverter chute in a sortation system. The 580 mm stroke provides the necessary travel arc, while the adjustable cushioning manages the inertial load of the heavy gate at speed.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X580S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 when your application requires a force class around 3927 N at standard plant pressure; for lower force needs, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For strokes of 580 mm, always evaluate side-load conditions—an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is vulnerable to bending under lateral force. Use an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder if side loads are present.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 580 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (footless) mounting configuration. This is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is dimensionally shorter and not interchangeable with ISO 15552 fixed dimensions.
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 SC100X580S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), 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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet inside the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel's tie-rod grooves to detect piston position without any additional brackets.
