About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SFA
The AirTAC SC100X700SFA is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a 700 mm stroke, it is built for heavy linear actuation tasks. The 25 mm diameter piston rod provides robust resistance to bending, while the 29 mm air cushion at each end decelerates high-mass loads smoothly.
This model comes configured with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) and an FA front rectangular flange mount. The magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the tie-rod barrel for precise, non-contact position sensing. The front flange (F-SC100FA) enables secure, perpendicular mounting to a machine panel or bulkhead, ensuring rigid alignment of the rod end.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SFA Is Used
Heavy Material Handling
Operating a large vertical lift gate or a heavy-duty pusher in a warehouse, where the 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa easily moves palletized loads.
Automated Press Feed
Feeding heavy steel blanks into a stamping press, using the front flange for rigid alignment and the magnet sensors to confirm each full advance and retract cycle.
Logistics Diverter
Actuating a high-speed diverter gate on a conveyor line, where the adjustable cushion absorbs the impact of diverting heavy packages at speed.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SFA the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SC100X700SFA means choosing a cylinder with a 100 mm bore and 700 mm stroke for heavy-duty applications. If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to an 80 mm bore reduces push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, which may be more energy-efficient for lighter loads. For strokes of this length, always assess side-load conditions; an unsupported 700 mm rod extension can experience bending moments. Using an external guide rail or a guided cylinder variant is recommended to protect the rod bearings and ensure long seal life. For direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT port thread, FA front flange mount, and the -S magnet option.
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 SC100X700SFA FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC100X700SFA generates a theoretical push force of 5497 N. The pull force on the retract stroke is 3681 N, accounting for the area reduction from the 25 mm piston rod.
Yes, this is a direct replacement if your existing cylinder is an AirTAC SC series, double-acting, with a 100 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT ports, an FA front flange mount, and a built-in magnet for sensors. The SC is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile, so it will not directly interchange with ISO 15552 cylinders.
