The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X800SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 800mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC200X800SH is a double-acting tie-rod 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. This model combines an 800 mm stroke with a 40 mm diameter piston rod and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion, making it suitable for heavy-duty linear movements in industrial machinery.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (suffix -S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, this cylinder provides reliable end-of-stroke detection. The -H suffix designates Viton (FKM) seals, shifting the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C for use in hot environments. The body length A is 244 mm, and the port thread is PT1/2.

Delivers up to 28274 N of force at 0.9 MPa for powerful pressing, stamping, and clamping operations in manufacturing cells.
The 800 mm stroke moves heavy pallets or components between stations on automated transfer lines, with sensor feedback for precise positioning.
Viton seals allow reliable operation in ovens, foundries, or autoclaves up to 150°C, where standard seals would degrade.
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to the 160 mm bore SC160 series, which provides 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a higher force is needed, the 250 mm bore SC250 series offers 24544 N at the same pressure. This 800 mm stroke is within the standard range for the 200 mm bore, which supports strokes up to 1500 mm.
When replacing an existing cylinder, ensure a match on all five key points: 200 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting configuration. For strokes of this length, always verify the rod is not subjected to significant side loads; an external guide or guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
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 SC200X800SH is a standard double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. The piston will drift or drop under load. To hold a position without live pressure, you must add an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
