The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X220 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 220mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC200X220 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering substantial linear force for heavy industrial automation. With a 200 mm bore and 220 mm stroke, it generates a push force of 15708 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The 40 mm diameter piston rod and 33 mm adjustable air cushion are engineered to manage high-inertia loads smoothly.
This model features a body length A of 244 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 464 mm. It uses a standard PT3/4 port and M36x2 rod thread. As a genuine AirTAC SC series cylinder, it provides a robust, field-serviceable solution with a tie-rod construction that is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 profile, making it suitable for installations where space is constrained.

Provides the high push force needed to slide heavy steel plates or dies into a stamping press, with the adjustable cushion absorbing the impact of the moving platen.
Transfers fully loaded pallets between conveyor lines. The 15708 N force at 0.5 MPa easily overcomes the inertia of heavy, stacked goods in a distribution centre.
Used in a beam welding fixture to clamp large structural sections. The double-acting control ensures a secure grip during fabrication and a positive release upon cycle completion.
Select the SC200 when your application requires a push force around 15708 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load is lighter, consider stepping down to the SC160 bore, which provides 10053 N at the same pressure, reducing air consumption. For strokes of 220 mm, ensure the load is guided; the 40 mm rod can experience bending moments if subjected to significant side loads without an external guide.
To guarantee a direct replacement, match five key specifications: the 200 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, basic mounting (no factory-fitted brackets), and the absence of a built-in magnet. This ensures physical and pneumatic interchangeability with an existing AirTAC SC200X220 unit.
Quick checklist
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 force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200X220 is a standard 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 at the end of stroke; it does not lock the position. For load holding, you must add an external rod brake or a pilot-operated check valve.
