About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850S
The SC100X850S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an 850 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for mid-to-heavy linear motion tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection without external brackets. The standard PT1/2 port and TPU seals suit filtered-air systems operating from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850S Is Used
Pallet Transfer
The 850 mm stroke pushes heavy pallets across roller conveyors in logistics hubs, with magnetic sensors confirming full extension and retraction to prevent collisions.
Industrial Press Feed
Feeds large sheet material into stamping presses, using the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to advance stock reliably while the adjustable cushion softens end-of-stroke impact.
Baler Compaction
Drives a compaction plate in recycling balers, applying up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa to compress cardboard or plastic waste into dense bales for transport.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore for force requirements 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 loads exceeding 7000 N, evaluate the SC125 bore (6136 N at 0.5 MPa).
At 850 mm stroke, the unsupported rod is vulnerable to bending under side loads. Use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder assembly to protect the rod bearing and ensure straight-line motion. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 850 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and any required mounting accessory.
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 SC100X850S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) the cylinder pushes with 3927 N. At 0.7 MPa it delivers 5497 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa the push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical pull force at 0.5 MPa is 3681 N due to the rod area.
Yes. The -S suffix means a magnet is built into the piston. You can clamp CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel to sense stroke end or intermediate positions without any additional mounting hardware.
