The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X600SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 600mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC200X600SH is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder engineered for heavy-duty industrial automation. With a 200 mm bore and 600 mm stroke, it generates a substantial 15708 N of push force at just 0.5 MPa (28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa), making it suitable for pressing, clamping, and lifting massive loads.
This model is equipped with the 'H' suffix, indicating high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals that shift the operating temperature range from the standard -20 to +70°C up to 0 to +150°C. The cylinder features a robust 40 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 port threads, and an adjustable air cushion length of 33 mm to decelerate high-inertia loads smoothly at the end of stroke.

Delivers up to 28274 N of force at 0.9 MPa for stamping, forming, and high-force assembly operations in automotive and metalworking plants.
Viton seals allow reliable operation in foundries, autoclaves, and near ovens where ambient temperatures reach up to 150°C.
The 600 mm stroke and 15708 N push force at 0.5 MPa efficiently transfer and position heavy engine blocks, molds, or structural components.
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to a 160 mm bore (10053 N push at 0.5 MPa). If you need even greater thrust, the 250 mm bore model provides 24544 N at the same pressure. Always ensure the load is guided externally, especially with a 600 mm stroke, as side forces can bend the 40 mm rod and damage the bearing. For a direct replacement, match the 200 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT port thread, and Viton seal material. This cylinder does not include a magnet; if you need position sensing, select a model with the '-S' suffix.
Quick checklist
At 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, the push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
No. The SC200X600SH is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain its position. If pressure is lost, the piston rod will drift. For static load holding, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
