About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1800
The AirTAC SC80X1800 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder engineered for applications demanding an exceptionally long 1800 mm working stroke from an 80 mm bore. At 0.5 MPa, this model generates a substantial 2513 N of push force, scaling up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, providing the muscle needed for large-scale material transfer or extended-reach actuation.
This cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the high inertial loads typical of such a long stroke. The body length A is 182 mm, making the total extended length approximately 1982 mm. As a non-standard stroke exceeding the 1500 mm maximum for the 80 bore, this model is built to order, ensuring a perfect fit for specialized machinery without compromising the genuine AirTAC performance.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1800 Is Used
Long-Reach Material Pusher
Ideal for pushing heavy pallets or large components across wide conveyor transfer stations, utilizing the full 1800 mm stroke for complete part separation.
Automated Spray Boom Actuator
Extends and retracts a coating or cleaning spray boom over a large work envelope, with the 28 mm cushion absorbing the shock of the long-travel mass.
Vertical Bin Tipper
Provides the high push force and long stroke needed to tip large bulk containers for dumping operations, where the tie-rod construction offers robust structural rigidity.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1800 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80 bore when your application requires a push force between 2513 N (at 0.5 MPa) and 4523 N (at 0.9 MPa). If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to an SC63 bore provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa in a more compact package. For higher demands, the SC100 bore delivers 3927 N at the same pressure.
For any stroke over 300 mm, and critically for this 1800 mm stroke, the long, unsupported 25 mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. You must use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent rod bearing damage and ensure reliable operation. When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: the 80 mm bore, 1800 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting configuration, and the absence of a magnet sensor option.
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 SC80X1800 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, 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.
A stroke of 1800 mm with a 25 mm rod creates a high risk of buckling under compressive loads and bending from side forces. You must not rely on the cylinder's rod bearing alone. Install an external linear guide rail system or a self-supporting guided actuator to carry the side load and protect the rod and seals from premature wear.
