The AirTAC Airtac SCT80~100 Multi-Position Tandem Cylinder SCT100X100X75 is a genuine double-acting MULTI-POSITION (tandem) air cylinder: two piston sections of 100mm and 75mm give 4 controllable stop positions across a 175mm total travel, with a Ø100mm bore, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCT100X100X75 is a double-acting multi-position cylinder that provides four distinct rod positions: 0 mm (fully retracted), 75 mm, 100 mm, and the total travel of 175 mm. Each 100 mm bore section generates a push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty sorting or two-depth pressing operations.
This tie-rod cylinder uses a 25 mm diameter rod and PT1/2 port threads, with a body length A(SCT) of 308 mm and a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end. The standard TPU seals provide an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C, ensuring reliable cycling in general industrial environments.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCT (multi-position) datasheet. SCT is available in bores 32–100; each of the two sections has a 500 mm max standard stroke (800 mm max). Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Position | Rod extension |
|---|---|
| P0 (retracted) | 0 mm |
| P1 (section 1) | 100 mm |
| P2 (section 2) | 75 mm |
| P3 (both extended) | 175 mm |
Positions are set by pressurising section 1, section 2, or both. With equal strokes you get 3 distinct positions; with unequal strokes you get 4.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
Force is per actuated piston section (single-piston, same as the SC bore): push uses the full bore area, pull subtracts the rod area. Size with a safety margin.

Directs heavy packages or pallets to four separate conveyor lanes by actuating the rod to 0, 75, 100, or 175 mm, using simple 5/3-way valve logic.
Performs a primary press at the 100 mm stroke and a secondary, shallower press at 75 mm for forming or assembly operations requiring two distinct force application points.
Acts as a heavy-duty stop gate on a roller conveyor, stopping large totes at three different positions (75, 100, 175 mm) for sequential processing stations.
Select the SCT100X100X75 when a single cylinder must replace a two-cylinder setup for a 4-position sequence, simplifying plumbing and control logic. For applications requiring a higher force per section, this 100 mm bore is the largest in the SCT range; if a lighter, more compact solution is acceptable, consider stepping down to the 80 mm bore (SCT80X100X75), which provides 2513 N of push force per section at 0.5 MPa. To replace this model, match the 100 mm bore, both the 100 mm and 75 mm strokes, PT port thread, and basic mounting style. If the 100 mm stroke section requires guiding against side loads, an external rod guide should be used to prevent bending.
Multi-position checklist
It provides four distinct mechanical stops: 0 mm (fully retracted), 75 mm (stroke 2 only), 100 mm (stroke 1 only), and 175 mm (both sections extended). The positions are discrete and selected by pressurizing the two cylinder sections individually or together.
Yes, the SCT100X100X75 is designed to replace two independently mounted cylinders with strokes of 100 mm and 75 mm, providing the same four end-of-stroke positions in a single, compact body. Ensure the replacement matches the 100 mm bore, both strokes, PT ports, and basic mounting.
