About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X890S
The SC100X890S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 100 mm bore and an 890 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 7068 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. The built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the barrel for contactless position detection, simplifying automation integration.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 knuckle thread and PT1/2 ports. The adjustable air cushion at both ends (29 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly, protecting the end caps during high-cycle operation. The body length A is 188 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1078 mm.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X890S Is Used
Pallet Transfer Systems
Moves heavy pallets across roller conveyors in distribution centers, using the 890 mm stroke to bridge transfer gaps and the magnet for end-of-stroke confirmation.
Automated Panel Pressing
Provides the high 0.9 MPa thrust (7068 N) for pressing large composite panels, with sensor feedback ensuring full closure before the curing cycle begins.
Long-Stroke Part Rejection
Extends across a wide conveyor to push defective products into a reject chute, relying on the adjustable cushion to handle the rapid cycle rate without impact damage.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X890S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 125 mm bore (6136 N push at 0.5 MPa) is advisable; for a lighter, more compact solution, the 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) may suffice. At this 890 mm stroke, the long unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under side loads—always use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bearing damage and ensure reliable sealing.
To replace an existing SC100X890S, match exactly: 100 mm bore, 890 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting configuration. The SC is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC100X890S 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors can be clamped directly onto the barrel tie-rods for non-contact position sensing.
