About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X560
The AirTAC SC200X560 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering substantial linear force for heavy-duty industrial automation. At 0.5 MPa it provides 15708 N pushing and 15080 N pulling, rising to 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. This model features a 40 mm diameter piston rod, PT3/4 ports, and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate high-inertia loads smoothly.
With a 560 mm stroke and a body length A of 244 mm, the total extended length reaches approximately 804 mm. The SC series is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard. This unit is configured with the default TPU seals for a -20 to +70 °C operating range and standard PT threads, with no built-in magnet.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X560 Is Used
Heavy Material Handling
Pushing and positioning large pallets or heavy fixtures on assembly lines, leveraging the 15708 N force at standard shop air pressure.
Large Press Tool Actuation
Driving the ram of a heavy-duty forming or stamping press, where the 28274 N peak force at 0.9 MPa handles high-resistance workpieces.
Structural Test Rigs
Applying controlled, high-force linear loads for static or cyclic testing of large components and materials in a lab environment.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X560 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC200X560 when your application requires a force class around 15708 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands more force, step up to the SC250 bore, which provides 24544 N push at the same pressure. For a lighter, more compact solution, the SC160 bore offers 10053 N. For this 560 mm stroke, ensure the rod is supported against side loads; long unsupported strokes can cause rod bending and premature seal wear. An external guide or guided cylinder is recommended.
To guarantee a correct replacement, match five key points: the 200 mm bore, 560 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, basic (no) mounting, and the absence of a magnet. This cylinder is a direct fit only for another AirTAC SC200 tie-rod cylinder with identical specifications.
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 SC200X560 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the pushing force is 15708 N and the pulling force is 15080 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the pushing force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than the ISO 15552 standard. It is only dimensionally interchangeable with another AirTAC SC200 cylinder with the same bore, stroke, PT port, and basic mounting.
