About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X510
The AirTAC SC200X510 is a robust double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (28274 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 40 mm diameter piston rod and a 510 mm stroke, it is built for heavy linear actuation tasks where substantial force and moderate travel are required.
This model features a 244 mm body length (A dimension) and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the piston smoothly at end of stroke. The PT3/4 port and M36x2 rod thread provide solid connections for high-flow pneumatic circuits. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa with a standard TPU seal for -20 to +70 °C environments.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X510 Is Used
Heavy Press & Clamping
Generates up to 28274 N at 0.9 MPa for industrial presses, holding fixtures, and heavy-duty clamping operations requiring consistent, controlled force.
Material Handling & Lifting
Provides the muscle for lifting and transferring heavy pallets or steel components in material handling systems, paired with external guides for safe vertical operation.
Large Valve Actuation
Operates large quarter-turn valves or dampers in processing plants, delivering the high torque output needed when coupled with a suitable linkage mechanism.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X510 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the 160 mm bore SC160 series provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 250 mm bore SC250 yields 24544 N at the same pressure. Always match bore, 510 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, and mounting style when replacing an existing SC200 cylinder.
At a 510 mm stroke, the 40 mm rod is well-supported within the cylinder, but external side loads must be avoided. If the load is not guided externally, use a guided cylinder or external linear rail to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
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 SC200X510 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 15708 N and pull force is 15080 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No, the SC200X510 is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered. For load-holding applications, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical brake.
