The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X750SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 750mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X750SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering substantial force for medium-to-heavy automation tasks. At 0.9 MPa operating pressure, it generates 7068 N of push force, and at a standard 0.5 MPa supply, it provides 3927 N, making it a capable actuator for pressing, clamping, and lifting. This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the piston smoothly at the end of its 750 mm stroke.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling precise end-of-stroke position feedback. The -H suffix specifies Viton (FKM) seals, shifting the operating temperature range to 0 to +150°C, which makes this cylinder suitable for high-temperature environments like foundries, autoclaves, or engine test cells where standard seals would degrade. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 938 mm.

The Viton seals allow this cylinder to operate reliably in heated platen presses for composite molding, rubber curing, or laminating processes where ambient temperatures exceed 70°C.
With 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa, it can shift heavy castings or weldments across a 750 mm span in a conveyor transfer station, and the magnetic piston enables sensor-based end-of-travel confirmation.
Suitable for throttle actuation or load application in engine dynamometer cells. The 0-150°C temperature rating ensures the seals survive the radiant heat from running engines.
Select the SC100X750SH when your application requires a force of around 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher force demands, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure. At a 750 mm stroke, the rod is fully supported within the cylinder, but if the load has a significant side component, an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler is essential to prevent bending stress on the 25 mm rod and premature bearing wear. For direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 750 mm stroke, PT port thread, the -S magnet option for sensor compatibility, and the -H Viton seal specification.
Quick checklist
The theoretical push force at 0.5 MPa (5 bar) is 3927 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 7068 N. For a quick estimate, the maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf. Pull force on the return stroke is lower due to the rod area, delivering 3681 N at 0.5 MPa.
No. The SC100X750SH is a standard double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at the stroke end to reduce impact; it is not a locking or holding brake. To hold a load safely without live pressure, you must add an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve in the circuit.
