The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X1800S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 1800mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X1800S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 1800 mm stroke exceeds the standard 1500 mm maximum for 80 mm bore, making this a made-to-order non-standard stroke unit for extended linear travel.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT3/8 ports, and an adjustable air cushion of 28 mm to decelerate the piston smoothly. The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the tie-rod barrel for contactless position feedback, ideal for automated sequences requiring long-stroke end-of-travel detection.

Extends 1800 mm to push pallets or large cartons off a conveyor spur. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
Moves large sheet metal or composite panels between wide-spaced stations. The 28 mm cushion absorbs energy smoothly even at the extended stroke's higher momentum.
Provides the long linear travel needed to fully open or close large slide gates. The tie-rod design handles dusty environments when rod seals are maintained.
For a 80 mm bore with 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, step down to a 63 mm bore (1559 N) if force requirements are lower and space is tight, or up to a 100 mm bore (3927 N) for heavier loads. This 1800 mm stroke is non-standard; verify lead time and ensure the application does not impose side loads on the extended 25 mm rod. For strokes over 300 mm, external linear guides or a guided cylinder are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 1800 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 2513 N and pull force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
Yes, for any stroke over 300 mm, especially with a 25 mm rod, external guides or a self-guided cylinder are strongly recommended. The long unsupported rod is vulnerable to bending and side-load damage, which can cause seal failure and reduced service life.
