The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1340 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 1340mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X1340 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa. Its 80 mm bore and 1340 mm stroke suit long-travel linear actuation tasks where consistent pneumatic force is required within the standard stroke limit.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 threads and PT3/8 ports. The body length A is 182 mm, giving an extended length of approximately 1522 mm. An adjustable air cushion (28 mm length) decelerates the piston at stroke ends to reduce impact, though external guidance is essential at this stroke length to protect the rod from bending under side loads.

Pushes or pulls product carriers across wide conveyor gaps or transfer stations, using the 1340 mm stroke to bridge extended distances without intermediate stops.
Moves large panels or sheets into precise stations in woodworking or metal fabrication lines, where the 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa handles substantial workpiece masses.
Extends a stop gate or pusher plate deep into a pallet magazine, releasing or separating pallets one at a time with controlled, repeatable motion.
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs between 2513 N (push at 0.5 MPa) and 4523 N (push at 0.9 MPa). If you require higher force, step up to the SC100 which provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa; for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC63 delivers 1559 N at the same pressure. For this 1340 mm stroke, side-load management is critical—install an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bearing wear and rod deflection, as long unsupported strokes concentrate bending moments on the piston rod.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 1340 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and no magnet. This SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa air pressure, the cylinder produces 2513 N extending (push) and 2268 N retracting (pull). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf. Actual force depends on your system's regulated pressure.
A 1340 mm stroke with a 25 mm rod creates a long lever arm that is vulnerable to side loads. Always mount the load on an external linear guide or rail system so the cylinder only provides push/pull force, not load support. For applications with unavoidable side forces, consider a guided cylinder or add an external rod support.
