About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600
The AirTAC SC80X1600 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with an 80 mm bore and a non-standard 1600 mm stroke, built for applications requiring extended linear reach. At 0.5 MPa air pressure, this model generates a push force of 2513 N and a pull force of 2268 N, placing it in a robust mid-range force class suitable for heavy tooling actuation.
This tie-rod cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT3/8 port connections. The total extended body length is approximately 182 mm (body) + 1600 mm (stroke). It includes an adjustable air cushion (28 mm length) to decelerate the piston at end-of-travel, reducing impact noise and vibration. Note that strokes exceeding the 1500 mm maximum standard for this bore are made-to-order.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600 Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
Pushes or pulls heavy components across wide conveyor gaps or between distant workstations, utilizing the full 1600 mm stroke for extended material handling.
Large Panel Pressing
Actuates pressing platens for laminating or forming large-format panels, where the 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa provides consistent clamping pressure across a wide area.
Agricultural Machinery Actuation
Controls gates, chutes, or sorting mechanisms on large harvesting or processing equipment, requiring a long stroke and durable tie-rod construction for dusty environments.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X1600 when your application demands a long reach with 2513 N of push force at standard shop air. If your load requires higher force, stepping up to the 100 mm bore (SC100 family) provides 3927 N at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For a more compact installation with lower force, the 63 mm bore delivers 1559 N.
For this 1600 mm stroke length, managing side loads is critical. A long, unsupported 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under off-axis forces. Always guide the load externally with linear rails or rods, or consider switching to an AirTAC guided cylinder unit to protect the rod bearing and seal from premature wear. When replacing an existing unit, ensure an exact match for the 80 mm bore, 1600 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and the absence of a built-in 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 SC80X1600 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, the maximum standard stroke for an 80 mm bore SC cylinder is 1500 mm, making this a non-standard, made-to-order item. For any stroke over 300 mm, and especially at 1600 mm, you must use an external guide mechanism to prevent side-load bending of the 25 mm rod, which can damage the piston bearing and seals.
