About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100S
The SC200X100S is a heavy-duty double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 200 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, factory-equipped with a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. It generates a substantial 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and reaches 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it a top-tier force actuator in the SC family.
This model features a 40 mm piston rod with M36x2 threads and PT3/4 ports, with a 33 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate large inertial loads smoothly. The body length A is 244 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 344 mm. As a genuine AirTAC component, it is built for demanding industrial automation tasks requiring high thrust and reliable position sensing.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100S Is Used
Heavy Press & Clamping
Delivers up to 28274 N at 0.9 MPa for powerful holding and pressing operations in metal forming or composite bonding fixtures.
Large Valve Actuation
Provides the high thrust needed to operate large industrial gate or butterfly valves, with magnetic sensors confirming open/closed position.
Pallet Lifting & Transfer
Handles heavy pallet lifts and transfer stations in automated warehouses, using the 200 mm bore for stable vertical lifting of large loads.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X100S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC200X100S when your application requires the 200 mm bore's 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa. For a step down in force, the SC160 bore delivers 10053 N at the same pressure. For a step up, this is the largest standard SC bore, so consider tandem or multi-position SCT variants if even higher force is needed. The built-in magnet allows tool-free mounting of reed or solid-state sensors directly on the tie-rod barrel.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: 200 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, the built-in magnet option (-S), and the basic mounting style. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, always evaluate side-load conditions—the 40 mm rod can experience bending under misaligned loads, and an external guide or guided cylinder is strongly recommended.
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 SC200X100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 15708 N and the pull force is 15080 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC200X100S indicates a built-in magnet is integrated into 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.
