About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X852S
The SC100X852S 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. Its 852 mm stroke suits long-travel material transfer and actuation tasks, while the 25 mm diameter piston rod and 29 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration at each end of the cycle.
This model includes a built-in magnet (suffix -S), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be clamped directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing. The cylinder uses PT1/2 ports and operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa across a temperature range of -20 to +70 °C with standard TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X852S Is Used
Long-Stroke Part Transfer
Moves components between distant conveyor stations with 3927 N of push force at standard plant pressure, aided by adjustable cushioning for gentle stops.
Pallet Dispensing Systems
Extends a stop pin or pusher plate over an 852 mm reach to separate and release pallets, with magnetic sensors confirming full retraction before the next cycle.
Automated Welding Fixtures
Positions heavy clamping arms across a wide fixture, using the -S magnet to verify open/closed states in automated welding cells.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X852S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the SC125 bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact build is acceptable, the SC80 bore offers 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. At 852 mm stroke, the extended rod presents a significant moment arm—external guides or a self-guided cylinder are strongly recommended to protect the rod bearing from side-load bending.
To replace an existing unit, match five points: 100 mm bore, 852 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the -S magnet option. This ensures identical sensor compatibility and physical fit within the tie-rod envelope.
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 SC100X852S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) the cylinder pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet on the piston, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clip onto the tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
