The AirTAC Airtac B52-SC Copper-Free Standard Cylinder B52-SC80X250 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 250mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The B52-SC80X250 is the copper-free (copper-prohibited) version of AirTAC's SC80X250 tie-rod cylinder. The leading "B52-" prefix marks a build where copper and copper alloys are not permitted, making it suitable for lines such as ammonia systems and some battery, electronics, and chemical plants. Please confirm the exact material substitutions with us, as our data does not specify them.
This double-acting cylinder delivers a push force of 2513 N and a pull force of 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa. It has a 25mm rod, a 28mm adjustable cushion, and a body length A of 182mm, giving an approximate total extended length of 432mm. The standard TPU seals handle -20 to +70 C, and the PT port thread is 3/8 inch.

Use the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa for light pressing, stamping, or forming tasks in automated assembly lines where copper-free materials are required.
Deploy as a positive stop or diverter on a conveyor. The 250mm stroke provides ample reach, while the 2268 N pull force retracts the stop quickly.
Ideal for actuating gates or valves in chemical or battery plants where copper contamination is prohibited. The copper-free build helps maintain process purity.
Choose the B52-SC80X250 when you need 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you require more force, step up to the 100mm bore, which offers 3927 N push at the same pressure. For less force, the 63mm bore provides 1559 N. This model has a maximum standard stroke of 1500mm, so your 250mm stroke is well within standard range.
For a 250mm stroke, side-load and rod-bearing bending are less of a concern than with longer strokes, but still ensure the load is guided and not applied perpendicular to the rod. For a proper replacement, match the bore, stroke, port thread (PT), mounting accessory, and magnet option (-S) of your existing cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 2513 N and the pull force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force is 4523 N.
The B52- prefix indicates AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the SC80X250. It is designed for applications where copper and copper alloys are not allowed. Please confirm the exact material substitutions with us before ordering.
