About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X600S
The AirTAC SC100X600S is a double-acting, tie-rod pneumatic cylinder 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 600 mm stroke, this model is built for demanding linear motion tasks requiring significant power over a medium travel distance. The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the barrel for precise, contactless end-of-stroke detection.
This genuine AirTAC SC cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 port connections. The total extended body length is approximately 788 mm (body length A of 188 mm plus the 600 mm stroke). An adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends, with a 29 mm cushion length, decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing impact and noise at the end of each stroke.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X600S Is Used
Heavy Part Transfer
Pushes or lifts heavy components between conveyor lines or machining stations with a 3927 N force at standard shop air pressure, ideal for palletizing systems.
Industrial Press & Clamp
Provides the high clamping force needed in assembly jigs, gluing fixtures, or light-duty pressing operations, with the magnet confirming jaw closure via a DMSG sensor.
Material Handling Gate
Operates a diverter gate or chute flap in bulk material handling, using the sensor to verify the open or closed position for automated process control.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X600S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 bore when your application requires a force between 2513 N (SC80 push at 0.5 MPa) and 3927 N (SC100 push at 0.5 MPa). For a 600 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is robust, but any significant side loading or misalignment can cause rod bending and premature bearing wear. For long-stroke applications like this, always guide the load externally with linear rails or rods, or consider a guided cylinder variant to protect the rod and seals.
To replace an existing cylinder, match these five points exactly: 100 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility. This SC series is a tie-rod design and 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 SC100X600S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical pushing force is 5497 N. The pulling force on the retract stroke is slightly lower at 3681 N due to the area of the 25 mm piston rod.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code SC100X600S signifies a built-in magnet in the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel's tie-rod slots to detect piston position without additional brackets.
