About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X1200S
The SC200X1200S is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at just 0.5 MPa (21991 N at 0.7 MPa). With a 200 mm bore and a 1200 mm stroke, it is built for heavy linear actuation where substantial force is required over a long travel distance.
This model includes the -S suffix, meaning a built-in magnet is fitted as standard. This allows easy, non-invasive mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel for precise end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position feedback. The 40 mm diameter piston rod and 33 mm adjustable air cushion ensure robust, decelerated end-of-stroke performance.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X1200S Is Used
Heavy Material Handling
Provides the high push force needed to lift, shift, or clamp heavy pallets and steel components in industrial logistics and warehousing.
Agricultural Machinery Actuation
Operates large gates, chutes, or press mechanisms on farming equipment, with the built-in magnet providing reliable position sensing in dusty environments.
Large-Scale Pressing & Forming
Delivers up to 28274 N of force at 0.9 MPa for pressing, bending, or forming operations in heavy manufacturing, with adjustable cushioning to manage high inertial loads.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X1200S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the 160 mm bore SC160 series provides 10053 N of push at 0.5 MPa. For maximum force in this tie-rod family, the 250 mm bore delivers 24544 N. When specifying a direct replacement, match all five key points: 200 mm bore, 1200 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. At this 1200 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally to prevent excessive side-load bending on the 40 mm rod, which can damage the rod bearing and seals.
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 SC200X1200S FAQ
At the standard maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force is 3204 kgf (31416 N). At 0.9 MPa, the push force is 28274 N. At a common factory pressure of 0.5 MPa, it delivers 15708 N pushing and 15080 N pulling.
Yes. The -S suffix in SC200X1200S confirms a built-in magnet is installed. You can directly clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors to the cylinder's tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without any additional brackets.
