About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X226S
The SC80X226S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining an 80 mm bore with a 226 mm stroke. It generates a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 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 option, embedding a magnetic ring on the piston that allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The cylinder body length A is 182 mm, and with a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end, it decelerates loads smoothly for reliable cycle life in standard TPU seal applications from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X226S Is Used
Material Transfer Gates
The 226 mm stroke and 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa reliably actuate diverter gates on packaging and sortation conveyors, with the -S magnet enabling end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
Clamping & Assembly Fixtures
Delivers up to 4523 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding workpieces during welding or machining. The adjustable cushion protects the fixture from impact shock, and the built-in magnet simplifies sensor integration for automated sequences.
Palletizer Pusher Arms
Provides the mid-range thrust and stroke needed to push cartons or cases onto a pallet layer. The tie-rod construction offers serviceability, and the CMSG-compatible magnet gives the PLC a clean position signal at full extension.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X226S the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring slightly less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore reduces the push force to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 100 mm bore increases it to 3927 N. Always match the replacement cylinder on all five key points: 80 mm bore, 226 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting configuration.
With a 226 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod is well-supported for axial loads, but any significant side loading requires an external guide or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. The SC80 is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC80X226S FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder pushes with 2513 N and pulls with 2268 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 3518 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with body dimensions that are shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so ISO 15552 mounts and end-caps are not interchangeable. Use the specific AirTAC SC80 mounting accessories, such as the foot mount F-SC80LB or the centre trunnion F-SC80TC with TCM1 bracket.
