About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1050TC
The SC80X1050TC is an 80 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 1050 mm stroke, built on the AirTAC SC tie-rod platform. At 0.5 MPa it generates 2513 N pushing force and 2268 N pulling force, while at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa the thrust reaches 4523 N — a robust force class for moving medium-to-large guided loads over a full metre of travel.
This model ships with the TC centre trunnion mounting bracket (F-SC80TC, supplied with the TCM1 trunnion bracket), allowing the cylinder to pivot during its stroke to accommodate angular motion. The 25 mm diameter hard-chrome plated rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end help manage the inertia of the 1050 mm stroke, decelerating the piston smoothly before end-of-travel contact. Total extended body length is approximately 1232 mm (182 mm body length A plus 1050 mm stroke).

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1050TC Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
The 1050 mm stroke moves parts between distant stations on a transfer line. The TC trunnion mount lets the cylinder pivot as the tooling arcs, preventing rod bind.
Guided Vertical Press
With 4523 N of force at 0.9 MPa, it can drive a platen in a guided press for assembly or forming. An external guide system is essential to protect the rod from off-axis forces.
Bin Tilter or Dumper
The centre trunnion pivot and long stroke suit a bin-tilting mechanism. The cylinder pushes the bin through its arc, with the adjustable cushion softening the stop at full tilt.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1050TC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs between roughly 2513 N and 4523 N of push force. If the load is lighter and a smaller footprint is needed, step down to the SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa); for heavier loads, move up to the SC100 (3927 N at 0.5 MPa). The 1050 mm stroke is within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 80, so this is a standard-stroke model.
At strokes above 300 mm, always evaluate side-loading and rod-bearing bending. For a 1050 mm stroke, even a small side force can create a large bending moment on the 25 mm rod. Use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial. For replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 1050 mm stroke, PT port thread, TC centre trunnion mount, and no magnet (this model does not carry the -S suffix).
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 SC80X1050TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa air pressure, the pushing force is 2513 N and the pulling force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force rises to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. Only replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with the same 80 mm bore, 1050 mm stroke, PT ports, TC centre trunnion mount, and no magnet.
