About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X150SFA
The AirTAC SC200X150SFA is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (28274 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 40 mm piston rod and a 150 mm stroke, it provides a compact yet powerful linear motion solution for heavy industrial tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for mounting CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors directly on the tie-rod barrel, enabling precise end-of-stroke detection. The FA front rectangular flange (F-SC200FA) allows rigid panel mounting on the rod side, while the 33 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly to reduce impact noise and vibration.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X150SFA Is Used
Heavy Press & Clamping
Generates up to 28274 N at 0.9 MPa for powerful clamping, pressing, and stamping fixtures in metal fabrication and assembly lines.
Material Handling & Lifting
Provides 15708 N at 0.5 MPa to lift and position heavy pallets or components on conveyor stops and transfer stations.
Industrial Gate & Damper Actuation
Operates large dampers, gates, and diverter chutes with robust force and integrated magnetic piston sensing for sequence control.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X150SFA the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC200 bore when your application requires push forces above 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, where a 160 mm bore would be undersized. For lower force needs, stepping down to the 160 mm bore (10053 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical envelope. Ensure the 40 mm rod is adequately supported against side loads—for strokes of 300 mm or more, an external guide or guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent rod bending.
For direct replacement, match five key attributes: 200 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT port thread, FA front flange mounting, and the -S magnet for sensor compatibility. This tie-rod cylinder 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 SC200X150SFA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) the cylinder pushes with 15708 N and pulls with 15080 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end—it is not a locking or holding brake. For load holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
