About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175CA
The SC80X175CA is an 80 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). Its 175 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm standard limit for this bore, making it a stock-configuration actuator for medium-reach linear tasks.
This model features a rear single clevis mount (CA type, accessory F-SC80CA) that allows the cylinder body to pivot during operation, absorbing misalignment in pulling or pushing linkages. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration, while the PT1/4 ports ensure straightforward pneumatic connections.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175CA Is Used
Agricultural Implement Actuation
The pivoting CA clevis mount and 2513 N force suit heavy-duty movements on towed implements, such as engaging harrow sections or controlling chute doors, where the cylinder must self-align during rough terrain operation.
Conveyor Diverter Gates
Provides the 175 mm stroke needed to swing a diverter gate fully open or closed on a material handling line. The rear clevis simplifies mounting on pivoting brackets, and the adjustable cushion ensures quiet, low-impact end-of-stroke stops.
Clamp & Fixture Actuation
Delivers a powerful 4523 N clamping force at 0.9 MPa for welding fixtures or assembly jigs. The rear single clevis allows the cylinder to pivot as the clamp engages, ensuring even pressure distribution on the workpiece.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X175CA the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80 bore when your application needs between 2513 N and 4523 N of force. If your load requires less, stepping down to the SC63 bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For higher forces, the SC100 bore provides 3927 N at the same pressure.
For this 175 mm stroke, side-load forces are a key consideration. Always align the load with the rod axis and avoid direct lateral forces on the 25 mm rod. If side loads are unavoidable, use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder variant to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. As a direct replacement, match the 80 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT port thread, and the CA rear clevis mounting configuration.
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 SC80X175CA FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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 AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod cylinder with the same bore, stroke, PT ports, and CA rear single clevis mount.
