The AirTAC AirTAC SE100X550SH ISO 15552 Cylinder | 100mm Viton 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 SE100X550SH is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for high-temperature and heavy-duty automation. Delivering a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa (5497 N at 0.7 MPa) across a 550 mm stroke, it relies on a 25 mm hard-chrome rod with an M20x1.5 thread. The integrated -S magnet enables precise end-position detection using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.
Built with a square extruded aluminum barrel that eliminates external tie rods, the body is highly corrosion-resistant and mounts flush against machine frames. The H code specifies a high-temperature FKM (Viton) seal, widening the operating range to -20 to 150 C. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to fine-tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, softening hard mechanical stops during high-speed 30-800 mm/s cycling.

Leveraging the 3927 N push force and 550 mm stroke to reliably pull hot plastic parts from injection molds, where the FKM Viton seal survives prolonged ambient heat up to 150 C.
Clamps heavy steel chassis components during robotic MIG welding, utilizing the built-in magnet for DMSE electronic sensors to confirm clamp closure in high-temperature zones.
Uses the 550 mm extension to shove heavy pallets onto secondary packaging lines, relying on the adjustable end cushions to decelerate the 25 mm rod smoothly at 800 mm/s.
Choosing this 100 mm bore depends on needing substantial thrust, as it provides 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If your assembly can operate with less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push, whereas scaling up to a 125 mm bore provides 6136 N for heavier payloads. The 550 mm stroke falls within the standard 1500 mm maximum for this bore, but at this length the unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; an external guide bearing is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal wear.
Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, this cylinder serves as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders, sharing standard mounting hardware like FA front flanges or TC trunnions. The PT1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread match the standard 100 mm architecture. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not hold a load. If air pressure drops, the rod drifts, so integrate a BSE rod lock or external pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe position holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 5497 N, with a maximum push of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE100X550SH is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and serves as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. It shares standard mounting dimensions and uses a PT1/2 port with an M20x1.5 rod thread.
