About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X165TC
The AirTAC SC80X165TC is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 165 mm stroke, supplied with a centre trunnion (TC) mount for pivoting applications. It generates 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it a strong mid-range actuator for swinging or articulated loads.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with an M20x1.5 male thread and PT3/8 port connections. The 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, and the body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 347 mm. Operating temperature range is -20 to +70 °C with standard TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X165TC Is Used
Diverter Gates
Pivots a material diverter on a conveyor line. The trunnion mount handles the arc motion cleanly, and 2513 N at 0.5 MPa shifts medium-weight packages reliably.
Clamp & Weld Fixtures
Swing-arm clamp for holding parts during assembly or welding. The 28 mm cushion absorbs impact as the clamp closes, protecting the fixture from shock.
Chute or Hopper Control
Operates a pivoting discharge chute on agricultural or bulk-handling equipment. The 25 mm rod and trunnion mount support the pivoting load without binding.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X165TC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when the 50 mm bore's 982 N push at 0.5 MPa is insufficient but the larger 100 mm bore's 3927 N is more than needed. The centre trunnion (TC) mount, part code F-SC80TC, ships with the TCM1 bracket and allows the cylinder to pivot as the load moves through an arc, reducing rod bending from misalignment.
For this 165 mm stroke, side loads are usually minimal, but always align the rod path with the load axis. To replace an existing cylinder, match all five points: 80 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, centre trunnion mounting, and the absence of a magnet. This SC tie-rod design is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard.
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 SC80X165TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), push force is 2513 N and pull force is 2268 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 3518 N. The maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa delivers 4523 N of push force.
No. The SC80 is a standard double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centered. For load holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
