About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SN
The SC100X700SN is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). With a 100 mm bore and a 700 mm stroke, this model is built for heavy linear actuation tasks where a long, controlled movement is required. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end help manage the inertia of large payloads, while the PT1/2 port ensures ample air flow for responsive cycling.
The -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet along the barrel, allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors for precise, non-contact position feedback. The -N suffix specifies NBR (nitrile) seals, providing a reliable seal for standard operating temperatures from -20 to +70 °C. This cylinder is a genuine AirTAC component, identifiable by its tie-rod construction and laser-marked body, ensuring you receive the exact force and dimensional specifications from the official datasheet.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SN Is Used
Pallet Stop & Transfer
The 700 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for transferring heavy pallets between conveyor lines, using the magnetic piston for end-of-stroke detection.
Heavy Part Ejection
Eject large stamped or molded parts from a press with a long, forceful push. The NBR seals and adjustable cushion ensure reliable cycling in dusty factory air conditions.
Bin Diverter Actuation
Actuate a large diverter gate in a gravity chute or sortation system. The sensor-ready magnet confirms the gate's open/closed position for automated material handling control.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X700SN the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring a step up in force, the SC125 bore delivers 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, while a step down to the SC80 bore provides 2513 N. When integrating this 700 mm stroke cylinder, carefully evaluate side-load conditions; a rod this long is susceptible to bending under lateral forces. For any stroke over 300 mm, it is best practice to use an external guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing and ensure linear motion. To guarantee a correct replacement, match five key specifications: 100 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting configuration.

- ✓ 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 SC100X700SN FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical 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. These forces are based on the 100 mm bore and 25 mm rod diameter.
No, the SC100X700SN is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or lost. The piston can drift or drop under load. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at the end of stroke to reduce impact. For load holding, you must add an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
