About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100FA
The SC200X100FA is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 200 mm bore and a 100 mm stroke, this model is built for heavy-duty linear applications requiring immense force over a short travel distance.
This configuration includes a front rectangular flange (FA) for secure panel or bulkhead mounting, using accessory F-SC200FA. The cylinder features a 40 mm diameter piston rod with an M36x2 knuckle thread, a 33 mm adjustable air cushion for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration, and a PT3/4 port. The body length A is 244 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 344 mm.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100FA Is Used
Heavy Press Tool Actuation
Provides the high force needed to operate large clamping fixtures and forming dies in metalworking presses, with the short 100 mm stroke ideal for punch and clamp actions.
Industrial Lifting and Hoisting
Acts as a powerful linear actuator in scissor lifts and material hoists, reliably raising heavy components with 15708 N of force from standard shop air.
Log and Timber Processing
Drives the heavy-duty stops and kickers on large sawmill conveyor lines, handling massive timber baulks with the front flange providing a rigid, fixed mounting point.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100FA the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC200 for applications needing the highest force class in the standard SC range, with 15708 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load requires less force, stepping down to the 160 mm bore reduces push force to 10053 N at the same pressure, which may lower air consumption and cost. For strokes longer than 300 mm on this bore, always consider external guides or a guided cylinder to protect the 40 mm rod from bending under side loads.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: the 200 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT port thread, front flange (FA) mounting accessory, and the absence of a magnet. This model is a tie-rod cylinder 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 SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100FA FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar) operating pressure, this 200 mm bore cylinder generates a theoretical push force of 21991 Newtons. The pull force on the retract stroke is 15080 N due to the 40 mm rod diameter reducing the piston area.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore and stroke. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Match it only with another AirTAC SC200 tie-rod cylinder with a front flange mount.
