About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180S
The AirTAC SC80X180S is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 180 mm stroke and a built-in magnet for sensor mounting. It generates a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and can reach 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod.
This model includes the -S magnet suffix, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The cylinder uses PT1/8 ports, adjustable pneumatic cushioning, and operates in a standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C with TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180S Is Used
Automated Assembly Lines
The built-in magnet allows sensors to confirm extend and retract positions, making this cylinder ideal for pick-and-place units and part transfer stations where cycle verification is critical.
Material Handling Gates
Delivering 2513 N of push force at standard shop air, the SC80X180S reliably actuates diverter gates and stops on conveyor systems, with sensor feedback confirming gate status.
Clamping & Pressing Fixtures
With up to 4523 N of force at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder provides strong, consistent clamping for welding jigs or light assembly presses, where sensor confirmation ensures the part is secured.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X180S when your application requires position feedback via barrel-mounted sensors. The built-in magnet eliminates the need for external switch mounting hardware. If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to a 63 mm bore reduces push force to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa; for higher force, a 100 mm bore provides 3927 N.
For a 180 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is robust, but always ensure the load is guided and side forces are minimal. To replace this cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 180 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and the basic 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 SC80X180S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the 80 mm bore generates 2513 N of push force on extension and 2268 N of pull force on retraction. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 4523 N.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet is installed inside the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors to be clamped directly onto the barrel's tie-rod slots to detect piston position without any additional brackets.
