force produced with an air cylinder?

I want to use an air cylinder/ actuator to operate a metal shear. How much force will an air cylinder produce @100PSI if the dia. is 2.5 inches and 10 inch stroke?
Thank you. Robert

Hello Robert.

If you click the link Actuators from the nav bar, you'll find lots of info about how to figure out the force your air cylinder is providing.

Cheers,
