About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850SH
The SC100X850SH delivers 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and rises to 7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a robust linear actuator for demanding mid-to-long stroke applications. This model features a 25 mm piston rod, PT1/2 ports, and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the 850 mm stroke smoothly.
Built with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals, the operating range shifts to 0–150 °C, suitable for autoclaves, foundries, or drying lines. The integrated magnet (suffix -S) allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position feedback without extra brackets.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850SH Is Used
Hot Press & Autoclave Actuation
Viton seals withstand 150°C ambient heat, making this cylinder ideal for platen actuation in hot presses, autoclave door clamping, or steam-process equipment where standard seals would degrade.
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
With 850 mm of travel and 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, it pushes heavy pallets or components between conveyor lines. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
Heavy-Duty Clamping & Forming
Generates up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large weldments or composite layups. The adjustable cushion protects tooling by absorbing impact energy at the end of the 850 mm stroke.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X850SH the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 bore when the SC80's 4523 N (at 0.9 MPa) is marginal; stepping up to this 100 mm bore provides a 56% force increase. For strokes of 300 mm and beyond, like this 850 mm unit, always evaluate side-load conditions—an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is vulnerable to bending. Use an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 100 mm bore, 850 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting style (no factory bracket). This is a genuine AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder, shorter than an ISO 15552 profile and not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard.
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 SC100X850SH FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC100X850SH is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is exhausted or the directional valve centers, the piston will drift or drop. For load holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
