The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X600STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 600mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X600STC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, making it a powerful actuator for heavy industrial tasks. This model features a 100 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, and a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads, equipped with PT1/2 ports and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the load smoothly.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors, and a centre trunnion mount (-TC suffix) supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. With a body length A of 188 mm, the total extended length is approximately 788 mm, and the standard TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

The 7068 N max force at 0.9 MPa easily actuates heavy diverter gates on wide conveyor systems, while the centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to pivot as the gate swings through its arc.
Use the 600 mm stroke to fully open or close large safety guard doors on stamping presses. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation via CMSG sensors to interlock with the machine control system.
The centre trunnion pivot and 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa make this cylinder ideal for tipping heavy bins or hoppers. The adjustable cushioning protects the mechanism from shock at the end of the tilt cycle.
Select the SC100 bore when your application needs 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; if you can work with 2513 N, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces size and air consumption. For this 600 mm stroke, be cautious of side loads—an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension can bend under lateral force, so consider an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not purely axial. To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the F-SC100TC bracket, and the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 3927 N pushing force and 3681 N pulling force (the pull is lower due to the 25 mm rod area). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -TC suffix designates a centre trunnion mount, which is supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC100TC). This mounting style allows the cylinder body to pivot around the trunnion pins, making it suitable for applications where the load moves through an arc, such as bin tippers or swiveling clamps.
