The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X175S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 175mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC200X175S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 200 mm bore and 175 mm stroke, factory-equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) so CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors clamp directly onto the barrel for rod-position feedback. At 0.5 MPa air pressure it generates 15 708 N pushing force and 15 080 N pulling force, placing it in the 15.7 kN class for heavy linear actuation.
This model uses a 40 mm diameter piston rod with M36x2 knuckle thread, PT3/4 port, and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate large inertial loads. The standard TPU/NBR seals give an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C. Body length A is 244 mm, giving an approximate extended length of 419 mm.

The 15.7 kN push force at 0.5 MPa lifts loaded pallets or heavy fixtures in material-handling stations, with the built-in magnet enabling end-of-stroke confirmation.
Delivers up to 28 274 N at 0.9 MPa for shop-air presses, assembly jigs, and industrial clamping where consistent high force is needed.
Operates chute gates or product diverters on conveyors handling bulk materials; the adjustable cushion smoothly stops the 200 mm bore piston under load.
Choose the SC200 bore when your application needs push force around 15.7 kN at 0.5 MPa. If you can accept roughly 11 kN, stepping down to the SC160 bore (10 053 N push at 0.5 MPa) reduces overall size and air consumption. For strokes of 300 mm or longer on this 40 mm rod, check side-load and rod-bearing bending moments; an external guide or guided cylinder may be required to protect the rod bearing from lateral forces.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 200 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and your existing mounting accessory. This SC200X175S is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder produces 15 708 N extending and 15 080 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, extending force reaches 28 274 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 31 416 N (3204 kgf).
Yes. The -S suffix means a magnet is built into the piston, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect rod position without external brackets.
