About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100FA
The SC80X100FA is an 80 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. Its 100 mm standard stroke is paired with a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 28 mm adjustable air cushion, providing effective end-of-stroke deceleration for moderate inertial loads.
This configuration includes an FA front rectangular flange (F-SC80FA) bolted to the rod-end head, making it ideal for panel or bulkhead mounting where the cylinder body extends behind the mounting surface. The standard PT1/8 port and TPU seals suit general industrial environments from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100FA Is Used
Panel-Mounted Pressing
The front flange mount allows the cylinder body to be recessed behind a machine panel, with only the rod extending forward for pressing, staking, or clamping operations.
Part Stops and Gates
With 2513 N of force at standard line pressure, this cylinder reliably actuates heavy-duty part stops or diverting gates on conveyor lines handling palletized goods.
Bulkhead-Actuated Tooling
Ideal for mounting through a bulkhead in automated work cells, the FA flange provides rigid support for tooling plates or welding fixtures that require a 100 mm linear stroke.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100FA the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring higher force, stepping up to a 100 mm bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 63 mm bore offers a more compact alternative at 1559 N. The FA front flange mount rigidly supports the cylinder at the rod end, which is excellent for linear push applications but requires careful alignment to avoid side loading the rod.
To ensure a successful replacement, match five key specifications: the 80 mm bore, the 100 mm stroke, the PT1/8 port thread, the FA front flange mounting accessory, and the non-magnetic piston (no -S suffix). This model is a tie-rod cylinder and is dimensionally shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not a direct drop-in replacement for that standard.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100FA FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 3518 N. The pull force on the retract stroke at the same pressure is 3167 N, accounting for the rod area.
No, the AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. It will only directly replace another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod cylinder with matching stroke, port, and mounting.
