About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920SH
The SC100X920SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 100 mm bore with a 920 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it generates a push force of 3927 N and a pull force of 3681 N, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod. The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors along the barrel for precise position feedback.
This model is configured with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals (-H suffix), shifting the operating temperature range from the standard -20 to +70 °C up to 0 to +150 °C, making it suitable for hot or aggressive environments. The standard PT (Rc) port thread is G1/2, and the rod thread is M20x1.5. With a body length A of 188 mm and an adjustable air cushion of 29 mm, the total extended length is approximately 1108 mm, providing smooth deceleration at the stroke ends.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920SH Is Used
High-Temperature Material Handling
The Viton seals enable reliable operation in environments up to 150°C, such as actuating gates or pushers near ovens, autoclaves, or foundry equipment where standard seals would degrade.
Long-Stroke Part Transfer
With a 920 mm stroke and 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder is ideal for transferring heavy parts between distant conveyor lines or workstations in automated assembly.
Sensor-Controlled Process Automation
The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to be clamped directly to the tie-rod barrel, providing precise end-of-stroke and mid-stroke position signals for PLC-controlled sequencing.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920SH the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X920SH when your application requires a force class around 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If you need higher force, stepping up to the 125 mm bore (SC125) provides 6136 N at the same pressure; for a more compact solution with lower force, the 80 mm bore (SC80) delivers 2513 N. Always match the replacement cylinder across five key points: bore (100 mm), stroke (920 mm), port thread (PT), mounting accessory (basic), and the magnet option (-S).
For a stroke of 920 mm, consider the potential for side loading on the 25 mm rod. Long, unsupported strokes are susceptible to rod bending and bearing wear if lateral forces are present. If your application involves any side load, implement an external guide rail or switch to a guided cylinder unit to protect the rod and ensure reliable operation.
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 SC100X920SH FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC100 cylinder generates a theoretical push force of 5497 N and a pull force of 3681 N on the retract stroke, based on the 100 mm bore and 25 mm rod diameter.
No. The SC100X920SH is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered, the piston will drift or drop. For load holding, you must add a pilot-operated check valve, a mechanical rod lock, or an external brake.
