About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1210SN
The AirTAC SC80X1210SN is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. This model features an 80 mm bore, a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 threads, and a non-standard stroke of 1210 mm, which exceeds the standard maximum of 1500 mm for this bore, requiring a made-to-order configuration.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix), it is ready for direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the tie-rod barrel for precise position feedback. The NBR seal material (-N suffix) provides reliable sealing for general industrial environments, and the PT1/4 port threads are standard. The adjustable air cushion at each end, with a 28 mm cushion length, ensures smooth deceleration for this long-stroke application.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1210SN Is Used
Long-Reach Material Transfer
The 1210 mm stroke is ideal for transferring parts between distant conveyor lines or workstations where a compact mounting footprint is needed, with sensor feedback for end-of-stroke confirmation.
Automated Gluing & Dispensing
Provides the long, controlled linear motion for adhesive or sealant dispensing heads across large panels, using the built-in magnet for multi-position sensing to program complex bead patterns.
Vertical Lift Assist
Used in a vertical orientation to raise and lower light payloads over a significant distance, where the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa can manage the load, and the NBR seals are suitable for a dry, indoor warehouse environment.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1210SN the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80 bore when your application requires a force between the SC63's 1559 N and the SC100's 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. For this 1210 mm stroke, careful attention to side-loading is critical. The long, unsupported 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under lateral forces; always use an external linear guide or rod-alignment coupler to protect the rod bearing and piston seals from premature wear.
When replacing an existing cylinder, ensure a 5-point match: confirm the 80 mm bore and 1210 mm stroke, verify the PT1/4 port thread, match the NBR seal compatibility, ensure the built-in magnet (-S) is present for your sensors, and confirm the basic mounting style. This is a tie-rod cylinder and will directly replace another AirTAC SC80 of the same configuration.
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 SC80X1210SN FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, 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, but this exceeds the rated operating range.
A 25 mm rod extending 1210 mm is highly vulnerable to side loads and buckling. You must guide the load externally with a linear rail or rodless actuator. Never allow the rod to push a load that is not fully supported. A rod-alignment coupler or floating joint between the rod end and the load is also strongly recommended to prevent bending moments from being transmitted to the rod bearing.
