The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X25TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 25mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC200X25TC is a large-bore, short-stroke double-acting cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, delivering a substantial 15708 N of push force at just 0.5 MPa. With a 200 mm bore and a 25 mm stroke, it is built for applications that require immense clamping, pressing, or ejecting power within a very compact linear envelope.
This model features a 40 mm diameter piston rod, a 33 mm adjustable air cushion for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration, and a PT3/4 port. The TC suffix denotes a centre trunnion mounting configuration, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC200TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot and handle swinging loads effectively.

Generates over 15 kN of force at 0.5 MPa for secure workpiece holding in large welding fixtures or assembly jigs.
Ideal for high-force pressing, staking, or riveting operations where the working distance is minimal but the power requirement is extreme.
The TC centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder to swing, making it suitable for actuating a heavy-duty ejector arm on a pivot.
Select the SC200X25TC when the task demands the highest force class in the SC range within a minimal stroke length. For applications needing slightly less force in a smaller package, consider stepping down to the 160 mm bore (10053 N at 0.5 MPa). The centre trunnion mount is ideal for pivoting applications, but ensure the load is guided to prevent side forces from acting on the rod.
For a direct replacement, match these five points: a 200 mm bore, a 25 mm stroke, a PT3/4 port thread, the TC centre trunnion mounting accessory, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This ensures dimensional and functional interchangeability with an existing AirTAC SC200 tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 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 TC mount includes a trunnion bracket (TCM1) that clamps around the cylinder body, creating a central pivot point. This allows the entire cylinder to swing during operation, which is essential for applications where the connected load moves through an arc.
