About the Airtac SE100 Standard Air Cylinder SE100BX250S
The AirTAC SE100BX250S is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty actuation. It generates 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 250 mm stroke. The SUS304 stainless steel rod provides superior corrosion resistance, making the unit well-suited for washdown environments where a standard carbon steel rod would degrade.
This model incorporates a built-in magnet for non-contact position sensing using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames while maintaining the standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface for seamless retrofitting.

Where the Airtac SE100 Standard Air Cylinder SE100BX250S Is Used
Palletizer Push-Off
Executes the 250 mm push-off stroke to transfer completed pallets in automated packaging lines, utilizing the 3927 N thrust to overcome sliding friction.
Beverage Washdown Diverter
Actuates routing gates on stainless steel conveyors in bottling plants, relying on the SUS304 rod to withstand harsh chemical washdowns without pitting.
Injection Mold Ejection
Drives heavy ejection plates on large plastic injection molding machines, using the 36 mm adjustable cushion to soften the impact of an 801 kgf maximum load at stroke end.
Is the Airtac SE100 Standard Air Cylinder SE100BX250S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 100 mm bore makes sense when your application requires substantial thrust, as it yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. If you need slightly less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push, while stepping up to the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push. Because this is a 250 mm stroke, the M20x1.5 threaded rod and internal bearing face bending moments under side loads; an external guide rail is recommended to prevent premature seal wear.
This cylinder uses a PT1/2 port and includes a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSE / DMSE sensors. Remember that the field-adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near the stroke limits; it is not a locking device. If the machine loses air pressure, the load will drift, requiring a BSE rod lock or external pilot-operated check valve to hold position safely.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE 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 (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE100 Standard Air Cylinder SE100BX250S FAQ
The SE100BX250S generates 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a PT1/2 port and operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable with any standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder, allowing you to reuse existing FA or FB mounting hardware. However, it does not hold position unpowered; if air is lost, the piston drifts, so you must add a BSE rod lock for fail-safe load holding.
