About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X150
The SC80X150 is an 80 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa. With a 150 mm stroke, it is well within the standard stroke range for this bore size, making it a readily available workhorse for medium-duty linear actuation.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT3/8 ports. The body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 332 mm. The adjustable pneumatic cushion at each end, with a 28 mm cushion length, effectively decelerates the piston to reduce end-of-stroke impact.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X150 Is Used
Package Sorting Gate
Actuates a diverter gate on a medium-speed conveyor line. The 150 mm stroke provides sufficient travel to redirect boxes or totes between lanes, with the 2513 N push force easily handling the gate mechanism's resistance.
Clamping Fixture
Powers a heavy-duty clamping arm in a machining or welding fixture. The 80 mm bore ensures the part remains firmly secured under 0.5-0.7 MPa shop air, preventing movement during the operation.
Waste Compactor Plate
Drives a compaction plate in a small industrial waste station. The high force capability at 0.9 MPa (4523 N) allows it to crush cardboard and other recyclables effectively within a compact stroke length.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X150 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X150 when your application needs force in the 2500 N class at standard plant pressure. If your load requires less force, stepping down to the 63 mm bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher force demands, the 100 mm bore offers 3927 N at the same pressure.
For a 150 mm stroke, rod bending from side loads is generally not a primary concern, but always align the load with the rod axis. When replacing an existing cylinder, ensure a 5-point match: 80 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic (no mounting accessory) configuration, and no built-in magnet. This is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC series or equivalent tie-rod designs.
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 SC80X150 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.
No, this specific model code SC80X150 does not include the '-S' suffix for a built-in magnet. To use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors for position feedback, you would need to order the SC80X150-S variant, which has a magnetic piston band installed.
