The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X210 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 210mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC200X210 is a heavy-duty 200 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 15708 N of push force at just 0.5 MPa. With a 210 mm stroke, this tie-rod cylinder is built for demanding linear motion tasks, featuring a robust 40 mm diameter piston rod and PT3/4 port connections.
At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the theoretical output force reaches 28274 N, placing it in a high-force class suitable for pressing, clamping, and lifting heavy industrial loads. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly over a 33 mm distance, protecting the end caps from impact damage and extending service life.

Generates over 28 kN of force at 0.9 MPa for inserting bearings, forming sheet metal, or operating heavy-duty assembly fixtures in automotive and industrial plants.
Provides the high breakaway force needed to open and close large hopper gates, diverter chutes, or heavy ventilation dampers in material handling and processing facilities.
Suitable for waste compaction or baler machines where a powerful, consistent linear thrust is required to compress materials into dense, manageable forms.
When selecting this cylinder, ensure your application's force requirement aligns with the 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa. If a higher force is needed, the SC250 series provides 24544 N at the same pressure. For applications with significant side loading, especially with this 210 mm stroke, an external guide or rod support is critical to prevent bending of the 40 mm rod and premature bearing wear.
To guarantee a correct replacement, match five key points: the 200 mm bore, 210 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model is a standard tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 15708 N and the pull force is 15080 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 28274 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200X210 is a standard double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or lost; the piston can drift. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at the end of stroke to reduce impact and does not act as a lock. For load holding, you must use an external rod lock, brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
