About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X350S
The SC200X350S is a large-bore, double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering substantial force for heavy-duty industrial automation. At 0.5 MPa air pressure, it generates 15708 N pushing and 15080 N pulling, scaling up to a formidable 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model features a 350 mm stroke and a 40 mm diameter piston rod with an M36x2 knuckle thread. The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the barrel for reliable, non-contact position feedback. Its adjustable pneumatic cushion, with a 33 mm cushion length, decelerates end-of-stroke impact to protect the cylinder and the machine structure.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X350S Is Used
Heavy Press & Forming
Provides the high force output needed for stamping, pressing, and metal forming operations, with sensor feedback ensuring precise ram positioning at every cycle.
Large-Scale Material Handling
Ideal for lifting, tilting, and transferring heavy pallets or bulk materials on large conveyor systems, where robust 28 kN thrust and reliable position sensing are critical.
Structural Test Rigs
Applies controlled, high-force linear loads for static and dynamic testing of structural components, with the magnet enabling precise data logging of actuator position.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X350S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC200 when your application requires forces in the 15-28 kN range. For a step down in force, the SC160 bore provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, while the SC250 offers 24544 N for the most demanding tasks. For this 350 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from significant side loads; an external guide or a guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
For a direct replacement, match these five points: 200 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting style. This tie-rod cylinder is not dimensionally interchangeable with an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
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 SC200X350S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 15708 N. At the standard 0.7 MPa operating pressure, it is 21991 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200X350S is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke end; it is not a locking or holding device. To hold a load safely without live pressure, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
