The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X712 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 712mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X712 is a double-acting tie-rod 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 712 mm stroke and a rigid 25 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for applications requiring a long, powerful linear movement.
This cylinder features a 188 mm body length and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The PT1/2 ports and M20x1.5 rod thread provide a robust connection for heavy-duty tooling, while the standard TPU seals ensure reliable operation in temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

Moves heavy components over a 712 mm distance on packaging or assembly lines, leveraging the 3927 N push force to shift large pallets or fixtures.
Acts as a powerful linear feed for stamping or forming presses, reliably pushing sheet metal or heavy blanks into the die area with controlled cushioning.
Provides the primary lifting or tilting action for a heavy-duty lift table or dumper, where the 7068 N maximum force at 0.9 MPa handles dense, bulky loads.
For a force step-up, the SC125 series provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, while a step-down to the SC80 offers 2513 N. At a 712 mm stroke, the rod is fully supported by the front bearing when retracted, but when extended, external guides or a guided cylinder should be used to prevent rod bending under side loads. This cylinder is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder matching the 712 mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, basic mounting, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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 reaches 7068 N.
No. The SC100X712 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is exhausted. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at the stroke end; it is not a locking or holding device. For position holding without live pressure, you must add an external rod brake or a pilot-operated check valve.
