About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X650
The AirTAC SC100X650 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder providing a robust 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm bore and 650 mm stroke, it features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 pneumatic ports, making it suitable for medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks.
This model includes an adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) to decelerate the piston smoothly at end-of-stroke, reducing noise and vibration. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 838 mm. Standard TPU seals offer a reliable operating range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X650 Is Used
Pallet Transfer
Moves loaded pallets across roller conveyors in distribution centers, using the 650 mm stroke to span wide transfer gaps.
Waste Compaction
Drives the platen in small-to-medium balers or compactors, leveraging the 7068 N max force at 0.9 MPa to crush recyclable materials.
Press-Fit Assembly
Provides the controlled 3927 N force at standard line pressure to press bearings or bushings into housings on an assembly station.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X650 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when your application needs between 3927 N and 7068 N of push force. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an SC80 bore saves space and air consumption (2513 N at 0.5 MPa). For heavier demands, the SC125 bore offers 6136 N at the same pressure. At 650 mm stroke, ensure the rod is guided externally if significant side loads are present, as the 25 mm rod can experience bending moments over long extensions. For direct replacement, match bore, stroke, PT1/2 ports, and basic mounting.
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 SC100X650 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 3927 N and pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No, the SC100X650 is a standard double-acting cylinder and will not hold position if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The piston will drift. For load holding, you must add an external pilot-operated check valve or a mechanical rod lock.
