About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60
The SC200X60 is a large-bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, rising to 28274 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. With a 60 mm stroke and a 40 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for short, powerful linear movements in heavy industrial machinery.
This genuine AirTAC SC series cylinder features a 244 mm body length (A dimension) and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the high-inertia load smoothly. The standard PT 3/4 port thread and M36x2 rod thread ensure secure, high-flow connections for demanding pneumatic circuits.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60 Is Used
Heavy Press Tool Actuation
Provides the immense 15.7 kN force needed to operate short-stroke clamping and punching tools in metal forming presses.
Industrial Gate & Damper Control
Delivers a powerful 60 mm linear throw to open and close heavy-duty material flow gates or diverter dampers in bulk handling.
Pallet Stop & Lift Mechanism
Ideal for end-of-line palletising systems where a compact, high-force cylinder stops and lifts heavy pallets for wrapping or strapping.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the SC160 bore provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. If your 60 mm stroke must handle significant side loading, pair this cylinder with an external guide rail system; the 40 mm rod, while robust, is not designed to support unguided bending moments. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 200 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT 3/4 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and the absence of a magnet sensor option.
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 SC200X60 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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 theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No, the SC200X60 is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position or load if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. For load-holding safety, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve in the circuit.
