About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X60H
The AirTAC SC100X60H is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 60 mm stroke, factory-equipped with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals. This seal selection shifts the operating temperature range to 0–150 °C, making the actuator suitable for autoclaves, foundries, and hot-process machinery where standard polyurethane would degrade.
At 0.5 MPa air pressure the cylinder develops 3927 N of push force and 3681 N on the pull stroke, rising to 7068 N push at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT 1/2 port, and 29 mm adjustable air cushion are matched to a compact tie-rod body with a base length A of 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 248 mm for this 60 mm stroke variant.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X60H Is Used
Hot-Process Actuation
Viton seals permit continuous operation in ambient temperatures up to 150°C, making this cylinder ideal for furnace door actuators, steam autoclave clamps, and drying oven transfer mechanisms.
Heavy Part Ejection
With 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the SC100X60H reliably ejects heavy castings or molded parts from high-temperature tooling without seal failure.
High-Temperature Press
The short 60 mm stroke and high force output suit heat-assisted pressing, laminating, or forming stations where the cylinder must dwell close to heated platens.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X60H the Right Cylinder?
This 100 mm bore cylinder is a strong mid-range actuator. If your load requires less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher force demands, the 125 mm bore delivers 6136 N push at the same 0.5 MPa pressure.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points to ensure drop-in compatibility: 100 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT 1/2 port thread, the specific mounting accessory (this basic model has none), and the magnet option (this model has no built-in magnet). The SC100 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 SC100X60H FAQ
At 0.7 MPa supply pressure the SC100X60H generates 5497 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force (the pull force is limited by the rod area and does not change with the seal material).
This model (SC100X60H) does not include the -S magnet option, so the piston does not carry a magnetic ring. To use CMSG or DMSG sensors, order the SC100X60HS variant instead, which has a built-in magnet.
