About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780TC
The AirTAC SC100X780TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa operating pressure. With a 100 mm bore and a 780 mm stroke, it handles medium-to-heavy linear actuation tasks where a pivoting mount is required.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 ports, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The TC suffix designates a centre trunnion mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (order code F-SC100TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 968 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780TC Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gates
The pivoting action of the TC mount and 780 mm stroke suit conveyor sorting systems, where the cylinder swings a diverter arm to redirect packages between lanes.
Clamp & Fixture Actuation
Delivers up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for heavy-duty welding fixtures or machining centres, with the trunnion mount allowing the cylinder to align with the clamp arm's arc.
Agricultural Implement Control
Used on seeders or tillage equipment to raise and lower toolbars. The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa handles heavy soil-engaging implements, and the centre trunnion accommodates the pivot geometry.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X780TC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100 when your application needs roughly 3900 N of force at standard plant air pressure; if you require less force, stepping down to the SC80 delivers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa. For higher force, the SC125 provides 6136 N. At a 780 mm stroke, ensure the rod is supported against side loads—long unsupported strokes on a 25 mm rod can experience bending moments. Use external linear guides or a guided cylinder if lateral forces are present. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points exactly: 100 mm bore, 780 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and no magnet.
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 SC100X780TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (approx. 73 psi), the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Only replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, and TC mount.
