The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X760SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 760mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC100X760SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.7 MPa, making it a powerful workhorse for demanding linear applications. Its 100 mm bore houses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread, and the total extended body length reaches 948 mm (188 mm body plus the 760 mm stroke).
This model is configured with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling precise end-of-stroke detection. The -H suffix specifies Viton (FKM) seals, shifting the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C, ideal for hot environments or applications involving aggressive media. Ports are standard PT1/2 with an adjustable air cushion of 29 mm.

The Viton seals and 0-150°C rating make this cylinder suitable for actuating platens or clamps in heated laminating, molding, or forming presses where standard seals would degrade.
With 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it can shift heavy bins or operate large diverters in high-temperature areas of a foundry or heat-treatment facility.
The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to provide open/closed-loop feedback to a PLC, ensuring the 760 mm stroke is fully achieved in every cycle without physical contact switches.
Selecting the SC100X760SH means matching a 100 mm bore with a 760 mm stroke for a force requirement around 4000 N at standard plant pressure. 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 heavier loads, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N at the same pressure. The 760 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore.
For strokes exceeding 300 mm, particularly with this 25 mm rod, be mindful of side loading. An unsupported rod at full extension is susceptible to bending under lateral force. Mitigate this by ensuring the load is guided on external rails or by using a rigid alignment coupler. When replacing, match five points: 100 mm bore, 760 mm stroke, PT1/2 thread, the built-in magnet, and the Viton seal material.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N (accounting for the 25 mm rod area). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 standards. It matches other AirTAC SC cylinders or tie-rod cylinders with identical bore, stroke, PT port, magnet, and Viton seals.
