About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175
The SC80X175 is an 80 mm bore, 175 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 2513 N push force and 2268 N pull force, rising to 4523 N push at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end provide reliable deceleration for mid-range automation tasks.
With a body length A of 182 mm, the total extended length is approximately 357 mm. This model is supplied with PT (Rc) ports in size 3/8 and a standard TPU seal for operation in the -20 to +70 °C range. The stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, making it a stock-configuration cylinder for general industrial use.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175 Is Used
Package Sorting Gate
The 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily diverts medium-weight cartons on a conveyor line. The 175 mm stroke provides ample travel for a full lane-change gate mechanism.
Clamping & Assembly Fixtures
Delivers 4523 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding parts during welding or assembly. The adjustable cushion softens the end-of-stroke impact, protecting the fixture and workpiece.
Hopper Door Actuation
Operates a discharge door on a bulk material hopper. The 28 mm cushion length absorbs the kinetic energy of the moving door, and the tie-rod design handles dusty environments with regular maintenance.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. If higher force is required, stepping up to the 100 mm bore SC100 delivers 3927 N at the same pressure. Always match replacement cylinders on five key points: bore, stroke, port thread (PT), mounting accessory, and the presence of a magnet (-S suffix). This basic model has no built-in magnet, so position sensing requires external limit switches rather than barrel-mounted sensors.
At a 175 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is well-supported for axial loads. If the application involves any side load, even a small one, consider adding an external linear guide or rod alignment coupler. The tie-rod construction allows the cylinder to be easily disassembled for seal maintenance if required.
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 SC80X175 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) the push force is 2513 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it increases to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf (5027 N), but the cylinder is rated for operation up to 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific model code does not include the -S magnet option. The piston does not have a magnetic ring, so reed switches like CMSG or solid-state sensors like DMSG cannot be used. You would need to order model SC80X175-S for built-in magnet compatibility, or use external limit switches with this cylinder.
