About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X20S
The AirTAC SC80X20S is a double-acting single-rod tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 20 mm stroke suits short clamping, ejecting, or positioning tasks where space is tight but the 80 mm bore provides substantial force.
This model includes a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to mount directly on the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The 25 mm diameter rod and PT3/8 port supply ample flow, while the 28 mm adjustable air cushion decelerates the piston smoothly at end of travel.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X20S Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Delivers 2513 N at 0.5 MPa in a compact 20 mm stroke, ideal for fixture clamps needing sensor-confirmed closure.
Sensor-Monitored Ejection
Built-in magnet enables precise end-of-stroke sensing for part ejection or sorting gates in automated cells.
Diverter Gate Actuation
Quick 20 mm stroke with sensor feedback reliably actuates small diverters or stops on conveyor lines.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X20S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80X20S for high-force, short-stroke applications where sensor feedback is required. If 2513 N at 0.5 MPa exceeds your need, the SC63 bore drops force to 1559 N push. For longer strokes up to 1500 mm, the SC80 series supports standard options. Ensure a 5-point match when replacing: 80 mm bore, 20 mm stroke, PT3/8 port (PT thread), basic mount, and the -S magnet option for sensor compatibility.
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 SC80X20S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it generates 2513 N push force, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it reaches 4523 N. Pull force at 0.5 MPa is 2268 N.
Yes, the -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet, making it compatible with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors that clamp onto the barrel for position feedback.
