The AirTAC Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC125X80STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 80mm stroke, PT1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC125X80STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 11045 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm stroke and a robust 32 mm piston rod, this model is built for heavy linear actuation tasks where a compact, pivoting installation is required.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a centre trunnion mount (TC) supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC125TC) for smooth pivoting under load. The standard TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C, and the 28 mm air cushion at each end decelerates the piston to protect the end caps.

The 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily diverts heavy pallets or large packages on high-capacity conveyor systems, with the trunnion mount allowing the cylinder body to pivot as the gate actuates.
Delivers consistent, high-force clamping for large weldments in automotive or structural steel fixtures. The magnetic piston enables end-of-stroke confirmation to ensure part presence before the welding cycle starts.
Controls chutes or heavy baffles on harvesters and spreaders. The centre trunnion mount handles the arcing motion, while the robust 32 mm rod withstands harsh, dusty environments.
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 160 mm bore provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. If a lower force and smaller footprint are acceptable, the 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N. This SC125X80STC is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SC125 tie-rod cylinder of the same stroke, provided the port thread (PT), magnet option (-S), and TC centre trunnion mounting match. For strokes of 80 mm, side-load bending is typically not a concern, but always ensure the load is guided if any lateral force is present.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 6136 N and the pull force is 5734 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 1251 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter in overall length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC125 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, centre trunnion mount, and magnetic piston.
