About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180TC
The AirTAC SC80X180TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 80 mm bore and 25 mm diameter piston rod drive a 180 mm stroke, cushioned by 28 mm of adjustable air damping at each end.
This model includes the TC centre trunnion mounting, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC80TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The body length A is 182 mm, making the total extended length approximately 362 mm. It uses PT1/4 ports and operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180TC Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gates
The 180 mm stroke and pivoting trunnion mount suit medium-throw diverter gates on packaging lines, handling 2513 N of push force to redirect products reliably.
Clamping & Welding Fixtures
Centre trunnion mounting allows the cylinder body to swing, ideal for clamping arms in robotic welding cells where the 4523 N force at 0.9 MPa secures heavy workpieces.
Agricultural Implement Actuation
Pivoting linkage actuation on tillage or seeding equipment benefits from the SC80X180TC's robust tie-rod construction and adjustable cushioning for end-of-stroke deceleration.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X180TC the Right Cylinder?
For higher force, the SC100 bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa; for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC63 delivers 1559 N. This 180 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 80 mm bore.
When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 180 mm stroke, PT port thread, TC centre trunnion mounting, and the absence of a magnet. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC unit with the same specifications.
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 SC80X180TC 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 reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 standards. Replace only with another AirTAC SC80 cylinder matching the 180 mm stroke, TC mount, and PT ports.
