About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600S
The SC80X1600S is an extra-long-stroke double-acting cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion manage the deceleration of heavy loads over the full 1600 mm travel.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be mounted directly on the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing. The 1600 mm stroke exceeds the standard 1500 mm maximum for 80 mm bore, making this a made-to-order configuration.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600S Is Used
Long-Reach Material Transfer
Pushes or pulls product carriers across wide gaps in conveyor systems where a 1600 mm stroke is required to bridge the distance.
Automated Welding Fixtures
Positions welding torches or clamps over a large work envelope, with magnetic sensors confirming full retraction before the next cycle.
Pallet Dispenser Lift
Provides the long vertical lift needed to raise a single pallet from a stack, using the 4523 N force at 0.9 MPa for heavy wooden pallets.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, standard stroke is acceptable, the SC80X1500 avoids the non-standard lead time. At 1600 mm, the unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; always use an external guide or linear rail to protect the rod bearings and seals.
When replacing, match five points: 80 mm bore, 1600 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting style. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC80X1600S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 2513 N and pull force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 4523 N.
A 1600 mm stroke on a 25 mm rod creates a high risk of buckling under compression or bending under side load. You must mount the load on an external linear guide rail and use a floating rod coupler to absorb misalignment, preventing premature seal and bearing failure.
