The AirTAC Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X80 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm 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 AirTAC SC100X80 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a strong choice for medium-stroke clamping and pressing operations. Its 80 mm stroke is well within the standard range for the 100 mm bore, which supports strokes up to 1500 mm.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT1/2 pneumatic ports. The adjustable air cushion (29 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at end-of-travel, reducing impact noise and wear in high-cycle applications.

Generates nearly 4000 N at 0.5 MPa for inserting bearings, bushings, or pins into housings with consistent, controlled force.
Short 80 mm stroke provides fast actuation for diverting packages or parts off a conveyor line in packaging and logistics systems.
Holds workpieces securely during machining or welding. The 25 mm rod and tie-rod construction offer rigidity under repetitive clamping cycles.
For applications needing slightly less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption. If higher force is required, the 125 mm bore delivers 6136 N at the same pressure. Always match replacement cylinders on five key points: bore, stroke, port thread (PT), mounting accessory, and magnet option.
At 80 mm stroke, side loading is minimal, but ensure the rod is aligned axially with the load. For strokes over 300 mm, consider an external guide or guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing from bending moments.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 3927 N and pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 7068 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length (A=188 mm) than a comparable ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is dimensionally interchangeable only with another AirTAC SC100 tie-rod cylinder matching the same stroke, port thread, and mounting.
