About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X470STC
The SC200X470STC is a large-bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (28274 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 200 mm bore, 40 mm piston rod, and 470 mm stroke, it handles heavy linear motion in compact machine footprints. The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for contactless position feedback.
This configuration includes a centre trunnion mount (F-SC200TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket, letting the cylinder pivot freely as it strokes—ideal for swinging or articulating loads. The 33 mm adjustable air cushion decelerates the piston smoothly at end-of-travel, protecting the end caps. Total extended body length is approximately 714 mm (body length A of 244 mm plus 470 mm stroke).

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X470STC Is Used
Heavy Press & Clamping
The 28274 N thrust at 0.9 MPa makes this cylinder a strong choice for hydraulic-to-pneumatic conversion in heavy-duty clamping fixtures, punch presses, and riveting stations.
Material Handling Pivots
With the TC centre trunnion mount, the SC200X470STC pivots under load, perfect for bin tippers, conveyor gates, and large-part diverters requiring a 470 mm stroke.
Industrial Automation
The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing via reed or solid-state sensors, making it easy to integrate into automated assembly lines for heavy component transfer.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X470STC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC200 bore when your application needs between 15708 N (push at 0.5 MPa) and 28274 N (push at 0.9 MPa). If you can accept a lower force, stepping down to the SC160 bore saves space and weight (10053 N push at 0.5 MPa). For even higher force demands, the SC250 bore provides 24544 N at the same pressure. At 470 mm stroke, ensure the 40 mm rod is adequately supported against side loads—consider an external guide rail or a guided cylinder if the load is not purely axial. To replace this model, match bore (200 mm), stroke (470 mm), PT port thread, centre trunnion mount (TC), and the built-in magnet (-S).
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 SC200X470STC FAQ
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, push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. For load holding without live pressure, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve.
