About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X900N
The AirTAC SC100X900N is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a 900 mm stroke, this model is built for applications requiring a long, powerful linear push, featuring a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 ports.
This variant is fitted with NBR (nitrile) seals, offering reliable performance within the standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C. The cylinder includes an adjustable pneumatic cushion (29 mm length) to decelerate the piston smoothly at the end of its travel, reducing impact and noise for a long service life in demanding industrial environments.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X900N Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
Provides the extended 900 mm reach needed to push heavy pallets or components across wide conveyor transfer stations, leveraging 3927 N of force at standard shop air.
Heavy-Duty Clamping & Fixturing
Applies up to 7068 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for securing large weldments or workpieces in heavy fabrication jigs, with NBR seals for standard factory environments.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
Operates chute diverters or large gates on seed and grain handling equipment, where the long 900 mm stroke and high force are essential for controlling bulk material flow.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X900N the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC100 when your application demands a force between the SC80 (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) and the SC125 (6136 N at 0.5 MPa). For this 900 mm stroke, carefully evaluate side-load conditions; the long, unsupported 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under radial forces. Using an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the rod bearing and ensure reliable operation. For replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting, and NBR seal material to guarantee a direct fit.
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 SC100X900N 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 increases to 7068 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
A stroke of 900 mm with a 25 mm rod creates a high risk of rod buckling or bearing damage under side loads. You must install an external linear guide rail system parallel to the cylinder to absorb all radial forces, ensuring the cylinder rod is subjected to pure axial push/pull motion only.
