About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1080
The SC80X1080 is an AirTAC SC series double-acting tie-rod cylinder with an 80 mm bore and a 1080 mm stroke, operating on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa. At 0.5 MPa, it generates 2513 N of push force and 2268 N on the pull stroke, driven through a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 knuckle thread.
This model features a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing impact noise and wear. The body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1262 mm. With PT3/8 ports and standard TPU seals, it is rated for a temperature range of -20 to +70 °C and a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1080 Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
The 1080 mm stroke moves components between distant conveyor stations or work cells, with 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to handle heavy pallets or fixtures.
Vertical Lift Gate Actuation
Operates tall lift gates or hopper doors in warehousing and logistics, using the adjustable cushion to soften the stop at both ends of the 1080 mm travel.
Automated Panel Pressing
Provides the long reach and controlled force for pressing large panels or laminates in furniture or automotive trim lines, where consistent 2513 N force is required.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1080 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application requires a push force around 2513 N at 0.5 MPa—stepping down to the SC63 bore provides 1559 N, while stepping up to the SC100 bore delivers 3927 N at the same pressure. This 1080 mm stroke is within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 80 mm bore, so no special order is needed.
For a stroke of this length, always assess side-loading on the 25 mm rod. If the load is not guided externally, the extended rod is vulnerable to bending and bearing wear. Use an external linear guide or consider a guided cylinder to protect the rod and seals. When replacing, match five points: 80 mm bore, 1080 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the absence of a magnet.
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 SC80X1080 FAQ
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 reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
It is not recommended. With a 1080 mm stroke and a 25 mm rod, side loads or unsupported weight can cause rod deflection, bending, and premature bearing failure. Always use an external linear guide or rod support to ensure the load travels axially with the rod.
