The AirTAC Airtac SC200-250 Tie-Rod Cylinder Aluminum Alloy SC200X80 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 80mm stroke, PT3/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC200X80 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering substantial force in a compact 80 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa air pressure it generates 15708 N pushing and 15080 N pulling, while at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa the push thrust reaches 28274 N—enough for heavy pressing, clamping, and lifting tasks.
This model features a 40 mm diameter piston rod with M36x2 male threads, PT3/4 port connections, and a 33 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the high-inertia load smoothly. The body length A is 244 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 324 mm. Standard TPU seals provide an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

The 28274 N push force at 0.9 MPa drives forming dies, stamping heads, and assembly presses in metalworking and plastics processing lines.
With 15708 N at standard 0.5 MPa shop air, this cylinder lifts and positions heavy pallets, coils, or engine blocks on lift tables and transfer stations.
The short 80 mm stroke and high force actuate heavy-duty diverters, gates, and stops on roller conveyors handling large crates or steel drums.
Choose the SC200 bore when your application needs between roughly 15700 N and 28274 N of push force (0.5–0.9 MPa). If your load is lighter, stepping down to the SC160 bore saves space and air consumption—it delivers 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa. For even higher force, the SC250 bore provides 24544 N at the same pressure.
For any replacement, match five points exactly: 200 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, the required mounting accessory, and whether a magnet is needed. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders. Although this 80 mm stroke is short and side-load risk is low, always align the rod with the load axis and avoid direct radial forces on the rod bearing.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa the SC200 bore generates 21991 N of push force and 15080 N of pull force. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 3204 kgf, though the rated operating range is 0.15–1.0 MPa.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter in overall length than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore and stroke. The mounting dimensions, port positions, and accessory interfaces differ. Only replace with another AirTAC SC200 tie-rod cylinder matching bore, stroke, port thread, mounting, and magnet option.
