About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X85STC
The AirTAC SC100X85STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 85 mm stroke, this model is well-suited for medium-travel clamping, pressing, or ejecting tasks where a compact yet powerful linear actuator is required.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a centre trunnion mount (TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket for pivoting applications. The 25 mm diameter rod and PT1/2 ports ensure robust air flow, while the 29 mm adjustable cushion decelerates the piston smoothly at end of travel.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X85STC Is Used
Clamping & Fixturing
Provides 3927 N of clamping force at standard shop air pressure, ideal for welding jigs or machining fixtures with sensor-confirmed closure.
Material Handling
Pivots a sorting gate or diverter arm on a conveyor line, with trunnion mounting absorbing the angular motion and sensors detecting position.
Agricultural Machinery
Actuates a pivoting chute or hopper door on farm equipment, withstanding dusty conditions and providing reliable position feedback.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X85STC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X85STC for applications needing a 100 mm bore force class with sensor feedback and a pivoting mount. If your force requirement is lower, the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; for higher forces, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N. For strokes over 300 mm on this rod size, consider an external guide to protect the 25 mm rod from bending under side load. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, TC mount, and the -S magnet option exactly to ensure compatibility.
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 SC100X85STC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet. You can directly mount AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG series reed or solid-state sensors onto the barrel to detect piston position.
