The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100SN is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 100mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC80X100SN is an 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke double-acting tie-rod cylinder fitted with NBR (nitrile) seals for general-purpose pneumatic service. It produces a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and reaches 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod.
This 100 mm stroke model sits well within the standard stroke range for the 80 mm bore series, which extends up to 1500 mm. The cylinder body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 282 mm. The adjustable air cushion at each end is 28 mm long, helping to decelerate the piston smoothly and reduce end-of-stroke impact.

Actuates diverter gates and stops on conveyor lines. The 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily moves medium-weight packages, while the NBR seals handle standard workshop air supply.
Provides strong, consistent clamping for machining and assembly fixtures. The 25 mm rod and rigid tie-rod construction resist deflection under the 4523 N maximum clamping force at 0.9 MPa.
Delivers the push stroke for small pneumatic presses, bending jigs, or forming tools. The 28 mm adjustable cushion absorbs kinetic energy at the end of the 100 mm stroke, protecting tooling from impact damage.
Choose the SC80 when the 50 mm bore's 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa is insufficient for the load. If your application requires more than the 2513 N this 80 mm bore provides, stepping up to the SC100 delivers 3927 N at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For a 100 mm stroke, side loading is typically not a primary concern, but always align the rod with the load path to prevent premature rod bearing wear.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mount (no factory-fitted bracket), and no built-in magnet. This NBR-sealed model is a direct replacement for another AirTAC SC80X100SN or an equivalent tie-rod cylinder with matching dimensions and port configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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 increases to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
Yes, dimensionally it is identical. The SC80X100SN uses NBR (nitrile) seals instead of the default TPU. NBR offers good abrasion resistance and is compatible with a wide range of lubricated and non-lubricated compressed air systems, making it a suitable drop-in replacement for a TPU model in most standard temperature environments.
