About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780SH
The AirTAC SC100X780SH is a robust tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa for demanding linear actuation. Its 780 mm stroke, combined with a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion, provides smooth deceleration for medium-to-long travel applications.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) and high-temperature Viton seals (-H suffix), this model supports reliable sensor feedback via CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches and operates in environments from 0 to +150 °C. The PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread maintain standard SC-series connectivity, while the 188 mm body length A keeps the overall footprint compact for its force class.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780SH Is Used
High-Temperature Process Automation
With Viton seals rated for 0 to +150 °C, this cylinder is ideal for actuating dampers, valves, or clamps near ovens, autoclaves, and heat-sealing machinery where standard seals would degrade.
Long-Stroke Material Handling
The 780 mm stroke and 7068 N max push force efficiently transfer heavy totes or engine blocks between conveyor lines, with the built-in magnet enabling precise end-of-stroke position confirmation.
Heavy Pressing & Clamping
Delivers up to 801 kgf of theoretical clamping force for holding large workpieces during welding or assembly, while the adjustable cushion absorbs impact energy at high cycle rates.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780SH the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100X780SH when your application needs the 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa that a 100 mm bore provides—stepping down to an 80 mm bore would reduce force to 2513 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 780 mm, always assess side-loading: the 25 mm rod is strong in compression, but an external guide or guided cylinder is recommended if the load applies significant lateral force to prevent rod bearing wear.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five key points: 100 mm bore, 780 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor mounting, and the Viton seal material for high-temperature compatibility. This model uses a basic mount; if your application requires a pivoting or foot mount, the F-SC100 series of accessories can be ordered separately.
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 SC100X780SH FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 5497 N of push force on extension and 3681 N of pull force on retraction. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 7068 N.
No. The SC100X780SH is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold position if pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered—the piston can drift. For load-holding, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve.
