About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X589S
The SC100X589S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 589 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N on the pull stroke, making it a strong candidate for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks where a long reach is required.
This model includes the factory-installed -S magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be mounted directly on the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT 1/2 ports provide a robust connection, while the 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly. The total extended body length is approximately 777 mm (188 mm body length A + 589 mm stroke).

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X589S Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
The 589 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for transferring heavy components between distant conveyor stations or work cells.
Automated Clamping & Fixturing
Use the built-in magnet with DMSG sensors to confirm full clamp extension on large weld fixtures, where the 100 mm bore provides ample holding force.
Pallet Dispenser Pusher
Pushes heavy pallets or totes across a staging table. The adjustable cushion prevents jarring stops at the end of the long 589 mm travel.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X589S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 when the 80 mm bore's 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa is slightly too low, but a move to the 125 mm bore (6136 N) would be oversized. The 589 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. For strokes exceeding 300 mm, always assess side-loading: a long, unsupported 25 mm rod can bend under lateral force, so consider an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial.
When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 589 mm stroke, PT 1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic mounting style. This tie-rod design is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC100X589S FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 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, push force reaches 7068 N.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC100X589S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to directly clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors onto the barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
