The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC250X75 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 75mm stroke, PT1" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC250X75 is a large-bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering substantial push force of 24544 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 44178 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 75 mm stroke, it is suited for short, high-force clamping, pressing, or lifting actions where a compact extended length is required.
This ISO 6430 class tie-rod cylinder features a robust 50 mm diameter piston rod with M42x2 threads and a 40 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate heavy loads. The body length A is 294 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 369 mm. Ports are PT1".

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Generates over 24 kN of force at standard line pressure for short-stroke pressing, forming, and crimping operations in metal fabrication.
Provides the high thrust needed to vertically lift heavy dies, molds, or structural components a short distance in automated warehouses.
Ideal for powerful, fixed-position clamping of large workpieces on CNC machining centers or welding fixtures, ensuring zero shift during processing.
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to a 200 mm bore, which provides 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa. If a longer stroke is needed within the same force class, the SC250 supports standard strokes up to 1500 mm. When replacing an existing cylinder, ensure a match across five points: 250 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, PT1" port thread, basic mounting (no accessories), and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model uses standard TPU seals for an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 24544 N and the pull force is 23562 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 44178 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 5006 kgf.
No. The SC250X75 is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is exhausted or lost. The piston can drift or the load may drop. For load holding without live pressure, you must add a pilot-operated check valve or an external mechanical rod brake.
