About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X880S
The SC100X880S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an 880 mm stroke, delivering a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa). This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the tie-rod barrel for reliable, non-contact position feedback.
Engineered as a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, the SC100X880S features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT1/2 port connections. Its adjustable pneumatic cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at both ends, protecting the end caps during high-cycle operation. With a body length of 188 mm, the total extended length reaches approximately 1068 mm, making it suitable for long linear movements in material handling and pressing applications.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X880S Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
The 880 mm stroke and 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa efficiently move heavy components between conveyor lines or workstations. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing to confirm part transfer.
Automated Pressing & Clamping
Delivers up to 7068 N of force at 0.9 MPa for pressing bearings, riveting, or clamping large fabrications. The adjustable cushion protects tooling by softening the impact at the end of the stroke.
Palletizing & Sorting Gates
Ideal for actuating diverter gates or pushers in logistics systems. The magnetic piston allows sensor feedback to a PLC, ensuring the gate is fully open or closed before product flow resumes.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X880S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X880S when your application requires a force between the SC80 (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the SC125 (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa). For this 880 mm stroke, carefully evaluate side-loading conditions; an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is susceptible to bending under radial forces. Consider pairing this cylinder with an external linear guide or switching to a guided cylinder configuration if off-axis loads are present.
For direct replacement, match these five key specifications: 100 mm bore, 880 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. This tie-rod cylinder is dimensionally shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder and is not 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 SC100X880S FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At 0.7 MPa, push force increases to 5497 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the cylinder's tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
