The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X230 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 230mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X230 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a robust 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore, 25 mm piston rod, and a 230 mm stroke, it provides a compact yet powerful linear drive for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks.
This model features a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The body length A is 182 mm, making the total extended length approximately 412 mm. It uses PT3/8 ports and operates on filtered air within a standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Operates diverter gates and stops on conveyor lines, using its 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa to reliably redirect packages and pallets.
Provides strong, controlled clamping in machining centers and welding jigs, where the 28 mm cushion ensures a soft stop and prevents part vibration.
Powers chute controls and linkage adjustments on agricultural machinery, handling dusty conditions with the standard TPU seal's durability.
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs a push force between 2513 N and 4523 N. If your load requires less force, stepping down to an SC63 bore provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. For higher demands, the SC100 bore offers 3927 N at the same pressure. For this 230 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loading; if lateral forces are present, use an external linear guide to prevent rod bearing damage and bending.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five critical points: 80 mm bore, 230 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This ensures a direct dimensional and functional direct for another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod unit.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC80X230 produces a theoretical push force of 3518 N and a pull force of 2268 N. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 4523 N.
No, this specific model code (SC80X230) does not include the '-S' magnet suffix. It lacks the built-in piston magnet required for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. You would need to order model SC80X230-S for sensor-ready capability.
