The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1500 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 1500mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC80X1500 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore and a 25 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for demanding linear applications requiring a full 1500 mm stroke, which is the maximum standard stroke available for this bore size.
This tie-rod cylinder features a body length (A) of 182 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 1682 mm. It includes an adjustable pneumatic cushion (28 mm length) at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The standard PT1/8 port and M20x1.5 rod thread ensure straightforward integration into existing pneumatic circuits.

Pushes or pulls heavy bins and pallets across wide conveyor transfer stations, utilizing the full 1500 mm stroke to bridge large gaps without complex multi-stage actuators.
Provides the high force and long travel needed to close large-format platen presses for laminating wood panels or composite materials, with the adjustable cushion ensuring a quiet, vibration-free stop.
Operates a long-throw diverter gate in high-throughput sortation systems, reliably directing heavy packages between multiple conveyor lanes with a force output of over 4500 N.
Select the SC80 bore when your application requires between 2513 N and 4523 N of force. If your load is lighter, stepping down to an SC63 bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For heavier loads, the SC100 bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. This 1500 mm stroke model requires careful management of side loads; the long, unsupported 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under lateral force. Always use an external guide system or ensure the load is applied perfectly axially to prevent premature rod bearing and seal wear.
For a direct replacement, match five key specifications: an 80 mm bore, 1500 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no built-in magnet. This ensures dimensional and performance interchangeability with an existing AirTAC SC80X1500 tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
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 increases to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. For a stroke of 1500 mm, the 25 mm diameter rod is highly susceptible to bending and buckling under side loads. An external guide rail or rod alignment coupler is mandatory to prevent damage to the rod bearing and piston seals, ensuring a long service life.
