About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X740S
The SC100X740S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 740 mm stroke. It generates a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and reaches 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for medium-heavy linear actuation tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the barrel for contactless position feedback. The 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 port, and 29 mm adjustable air cushion are standard for the 100 mm bore, and the body length A is 188 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X740S Is Used
Material Transfer
Pushes or lifts heavy totes and pallets on conveyor lines, with sensor feedback confirming end-of-stroke position.
Press-Fit Assembly
Delivers up to 7068 N of force for inserting bearings or bushings, with adjustable cushioning to protect the workpiece.
Grain Chute Diverter
Actuates a diverter gate in agricultural handling, with the magnet enabling remote position confirmation in dusty environments.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X740S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X740S when the 80 mm bore's 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa is insufficient for the load. If your application requires even higher force, the 125 mm bore delivers 6136 N at the same pressure. For this 740 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loads; an external linear guide or guided cylinder configuration is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
To replace an existing unit, match five points: 100 mm bore, 740 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting. This SC cylinder is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile, so verify body length A (188 mm) against your mounting space.
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 SC100X740S FAQ
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 reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so you can clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly onto the barrel to detect piston position without external brackets.
