About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600TC
The AirTAC SC80X1600TC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. This model features an 80 mm bore, a 25 mm diameter piston rod, and a non-standard stroke of 1600 mm, which exceeds the standard maximum of 1500 mm for this bore size, making it a made-to-order configuration.
It is equipped with an adjustable pneumatic cushion (28 mm length) at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly. The TC suffix specifies a centre trunnion mounting style, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC80TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot for swinging or articulating loads. Ports are PT1/8 with an M20x1.5 rod thread, and the standard TPU seals provide an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600TC Is Used
Long-Reach Material Handling
The 1600 mm stroke and centre trunnion mount are ideal for long-distance pushing or pulling on conveyor diverters and transfer stations, where the cylinder needs to swing through an arc.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
Provides the high force and long stroke needed for actuating chutes, gates, or booms on harvesters and sprayers, with the pivot mount accommodating the linkage's angular movement.
Timber or Panel Sorting Lines
The 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa is sufficient for pushing heavy wooden panels or boards off a main conveyor line, with the long stroke ensuring complete clearance across wide belts.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1600TC the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring less force, consider stepping down to the 63 mm bore SC63 series, which provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a higher force is needed, the 100 mm bore SC100 series offers 3927 N at the same pressure. Always match the bore, stroke, port thread (PT), mounting accessory (TC centre trunnion), and magnet option (none) when replacing this cylinder.
With a 1600 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads. It is critical to ensure the load is guided externally and that the cylinder is used for pure push-pull motion. For applications with unavoidable side forces, consider using an external guide rail system or a guided cylinder variant to protect the rod bearings and seals from premature wear.
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 SC80X1600TC FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 3518 N and the pull force on the retract stroke is 3175 N. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 4523 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter in overall length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. A direct replacement must match the SC tie-rod design, 80 mm bore, 1600 mm non-standard stroke, PT1/8 ports, and the F-SC80TC centre trunnion mount to ensure identical mounting dimensions and pivot point.
