The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X100SY 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 SC80X100S is an 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke double-acting tie-rod cylinder from the AirTAC SC series, factory-equipped with a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. With a 25 mm piston rod and PT3/8 ports, it generates 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model’s 100 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 80 bore, making it a standard, readily available configuration. The adjustable air cushion at each end (28 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. Body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 282 mm.

The 80 mm bore provides ample force to actuate a diverter gate on a package conveyor, reliably sorting cartons at a standard 0.5-0.7 MPa plant air pressure.
Generates up to 4523 N of clamping force for a welding fixture or light stamping press, with the built-in magnet enabling end-of-stroke confirmation via a reed switch.
Powers the opening and closing of a safety gate or hopper door, where the tie-rod construction provides robust, serviceable performance in a dusty environment.
Select the SC80 when the 50 bore’s 982 N (at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient for the load. If your application requires higher force, the SC100 bore provides 3927 N at the same pressure. For this 100 mm stroke, side loading is typically not a primary concern, but always align the rod axially with the load to prevent premature bearing wear.
To replace an existing unit, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix for sensor compatibility), and the basic mounting style. This is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC80X100S double-acting cylinder produces a push force of 3518 N. The pull force at the same pressure is 3175 N, accounting for the area of the 25 mm piston rod.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code SC80X100S indicates a built-in magnet is fitted inside the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be clamped directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing.
