The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X650TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 650mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X650TC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 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, PT1/2 ports, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate end-of-stroke loads smoothly.
This model is equipped with a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot and self-align in swinging applications. The total extended body length is approximately 838 mm (188 mm body length A + 650 mm stroke), making it a compact yet powerful actuator for medium-to-heavy linear motion tasks.

The pivoting TC mount and 650 mm stroke suit medium-width conveyor diverters, where the cylinder swings to route packages between lanes with a robust 3927 N push.
Delivers 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for heavy machining fixtures. The trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to float, preventing binding during clamp actuation.
Ideal for tilting bins or hoppers in agricultural and processing equipment. The centre trunnion handles the angular motion while the 100 mm bore provides the necessary lifting torque.
Choose the SC100 bore when your application requires roughly 3900 N at standard plant pressure; if you need closer to 6100 N, step up to the SC125. For lighter loads around 2500 N, the SC80 is a more compact alternative. This 650 mm stroke is within the standard range for the 100 mm bore (max 1500 mm).
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 650 mm stroke, PT port thread, TC centre-trunnion mounting with TCM1 bracket, and no magnet. At this stroke length, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side load; if lateral forces are present, add an external linear guide or consider a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
At 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, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X650TC is a double-acting cylinder and does not lock or hold position when air is exhausted. If load holding is required in a loss-of-pressure event, you must add an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or a mechanical brake.
