The AirTAC AirTAC SE100X550S ISO 15552 Cylinder | 100mm Bore is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 550mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SE100X550S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty pneumatic tasks. At 0.5 MPa, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force, scaling up to a maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against machine frames.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), this unit directly supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic position sensing. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, softening hard impacts when moving heavy loads at speeds up to 800 mm/s.

Provides the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa required to erect heavy corrugated pallet cases, using the 550 mm stroke to accommodate varying box heights.
Secures injection molding tools with up to 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa, relying on the flush aluminum profile to mount cleanly against thick machine platens.
Drives light-duty metal stamping presses, where the adjustable end cushions absorb kinetic energy from the 100mm bore's high-speed 800 mm/s cycles.
If your application requires less force, the adjacent 80mm bore provides 2513 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the 125mm bore yields 6136 N. Because this cylinder has a 550 mm stroke, the 25mm rod and M20x1.5 thread experience significant bending moments under lateral loads; always support the stroke with an external guide to prevent rod-bearing wear. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 component, it serves as a drop-in replacement sharing standard PT1/2 ports and mounting patterns. Remember that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not hold a load if air pressure is lost.
Quick checklist
The SE100X550S generates 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 100mm bore, 550mm stroke, PT1/2 port, and a 25mm rod with an M20x1.5 thread.
No, the double-acting SE cylinder relies on live air pressure to maintain position and will drift if air is lost or the valve is centered. The field-adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends; they do not function as a locking brake. For fail-safe load holding, consider the BSE rod-lock variant.
