About the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60S
The SC200X60S is a large-bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (28274 N at 0.9 MPa), making it suitable for heavy clamping and pressing operations where the stroke requirement is short. The 60 mm stroke combined with a 40 mm diameter piston rod and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion provides controlled deceleration in a compact axial envelope.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be mounted directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The body length A is 244 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 304 mm.

Where the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60S Is Used
Heavy-Duty Clamping
Generates over 15 kN at 0.5 MPa for secure workpiece holding in welding fixtures and assembly jigs, with sensor confirmation of clamp position via the built-in magnet.
Die Cushion Actuation
Provides a powerful, short-stroke punch or stripper action in metal forming tools, where the adjustable air cushion manages impact at the end of the 60 mm stroke.
Material Stamping
Delivers up to 28274 N of force at 0.9 MPa for embossing or stamping operations, with the -S magnet enabling end-of-stroke detection for high-speed cycling.
Is the Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X60S the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring more force, consider stepping up to the 250 mm bore SC250 series, which offers 24544 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter body length is needed, the 160 mm bore SC160 series provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. This cylinder uses standard PT ports (PT3/4) and a basic mount configuration.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five points: 200 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting style. Although the stroke is short, always avoid side loading the 40 mm rod directly; for any off-axis force, use an external linear guide.
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 SC200X60S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 15708 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 28274 N. The theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet is installed in the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the cylinder barrel's tie-rod slots for position feedback.
