The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X600STC 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 SC200X600STC is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 28274 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 600 mm stroke and a rigid 40 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for heavy linear actuation tasks that demand both power and mid-stroke support.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for mounting CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors directly on the tie-rod barrel, and a centre trunnion mount (TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC200TC) to allow the cylinder to pivot during operation. The adjustable air cushion (33 mm) decelerates the piston smoothly at each end of the 600 mm stroke, protecting the end caps from impact.

Generates over 28 kN of force at 0.9 MPa for powerful clamping, pressing, and stamping operations in metal forming and assembly fixtures.
Provides the high thrust needed to cycle large-diameter butterfly or gate valves in water treatment, irrigation, and bulk material handling lines.
The centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder to swing freely, making it ideal for actuating heavy diverter gates and chutes on aggregate or mining conveyors.
For applications needing more force, the SC250 series steps up to 24544 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact footprint is required, the SC160 bore provides 10053 N at the same pressure. This 600 mm stroke model is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 200.
At a 600 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loads; an external guide rail or a guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. For a direct replacement, match the 200 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mount, and the built-in magnet (-S) sensor capability.
Quick checklist
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 increases to 28274 N.
No. As a standard double-acting cylinder, the SC200X600STC will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or lost. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at the stroke end. For load holding without live pressure, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
