The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X730H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 730mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC100X730H is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa operating pressure. With a 100 mm bore, 25 mm piston rod, and PT1/2 port, this model is built for medium-to-heavy industrial linear motion tasks where high-temperature resistance is essential.
This specific configuration uses the H suffix, indicating Viton (FKM) seals that shift the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C, making it suitable for hot environments such as near ovens or autoclaves. The 730 mm stroke is within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 100, and the adjustable air cushion at each end (29 mm cushion length) provides smooth deceleration. Body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 918 mm.

With Viton seals rated to 150°C, this cylinder reliably operates hot pressing, drying, or curing stations where standard seals would degrade. The 3927 N push force handles heavy platen or clamp movement.
The 730 mm stroke and 7068 N peak thrust move large castings or weldments between machining centres. Adjustable cushioning at both ends protects the tooling from impact damage during high-speed transfer.
Directs hot bulk material on a conveyor line. The PT1/2 ports and 100 mm bore provide the fast cycle time and force needed to actuate a diverter chute in foundry or glass handling environments.
Select the SC100X730H when your application needs roughly 3927 N of push force at standard plant pressure. If you can accept a smaller footprint, the SC80 bore provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier loads, step up to the SC125 bore at 6136 N. Always match the replacement cylinder on five points: 100 mm bore, 730 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mount (no bracket), and no magnet.
At 730 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is extended significantly. Avoid unguided side loads that can bend the rod or damage the bearing. For applications with lateral force, pair this cylinder with an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder assembly to protect the rod and seals.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the push force is 5497 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068 N. These forces are based on the 100 mm bore and 25 mm rod diameter.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. Use it to replace an existing AirTAC SC100 or another tie-rod cylinder of the same bore, stroke, and port thread, ensuring the mounting style matches.
