About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180
The AirTAC SC80X180 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a substantial 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 180 mm stroke suits medium-reach clamping, pressing, and material-handling tasks where a robust 25 mm diameter piston rod provides excellent rigidity.
This model features a body length of 182 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 362 mm. The adjustable air cushion at both ends, with a 28 mm cushion length, effectively decelerates the piston to reduce end-of-stroke impact, protecting your tooling and extending service life.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180 Is Used
Pallet Stop
Deploy the SC80X180 as a heavy-duty pallet stop on a conveyor line, using its 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa to halt and position loaded pallets reliably.
Clamping Fixture
Integrate into a welding or assembly fixture where the 180 mm stroke provides ample clearance for part loading and the 25 mm rod resists deflection under clamping pressure.
Press Application
Use in a small pneumatic press for inserting bearings or bushings, leveraging the cylinder's high force output at standard shop air pressure.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X180 when your application requires a force between the 50 mm bore (982 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 100 mm bore (3927 N at 0.5 MPa). For strokes of 180 mm, the standard tie-rod construction provides good column strength, but always assess side loads. If the rod is subjected to significant lateral force, consider pairing the cylinder with an external linear guide to prevent rod bearing wear and ensure smooth operation.
To guarantee a correct replacement, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 180 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the specific mounting accessory (this is a basic foot-mount style), and the presence or absence of a magnet sensor. This model has no built-in magnet.
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 SC80X180 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar), the SC80X180 produces a theoretical push force of 3518 N. The pull force on the retract stroke is 2268 N due to the area taken up by the 25 mm piston rod.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Match it with another AirTAC SC 80x180 or a cylinder with identical tie-rod dimensions.
