About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X600TC
The AirTAC SC200X600TC is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial push force of 15708 N at 0.5 MPa (28274 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 200 mm bore, 40 mm piston rod, and a 600 mm stroke, this model is built for heavy industrial linear actuation tasks that require high force and a pivoting mount.
This configuration includes a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC200TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during its stroke to accommodate angular motion. The body length A is 244 mm, and the adjustable air cushion (33 mm) decelerates the 40 mm rod smoothly at end-of-travel. Standard PT ports (PT3/4) and TPU seals (-20 to +70 °C) complete the build.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X600TC Is Used
Heavy Machinery Actuation
Provides the high force needed to tilt or lift heavy implements, plows, or booms in agricultural and construction equipment, with the trunnion mount allowing the cylinder body to swing freely.
Dam & Sluice Gate Control
Delivers the thrust to open and close large water control gates. The pivoting TC mount accommodates the arc motion of the gate arm without binding the cylinder.
Mining Conveyor Tensioning
Applies constant, high-force tension to heavy-duty mining conveyor take-up systems. The robust tie-rod construction withstands dusty, high-vibration environments.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X600TC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC200 when your application needs force in the 15-28 kN class. For slightly lower force, the SC160 bore delivers 10053 N at 0.5 MPa; for maximum force in this tie-rod family, the SC250 provides 24544 N. The 600 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. With a long 600 mm stroke and a 40 mm rod, side loading must be managed carefully—use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bending stress on the rod bearing, especially when the rod is fully extended. For replacement, match bore (200), stroke (600), PT port thread, TC centre trunnion mount, and the non-magnetic piston configuration.
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 SC200X600TC FAQ
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 SC200 is a standard double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. For load holding, you must add an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or a counterbalance valve in the circuit.
