About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X230S
The AirTAC SC80X230S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for the 230 mm stroke, making it a reliable workhorse for medium-duty linear tasks.
This model includes the -S suffix, meaning a built-in magnet is fitted as standard. This allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing, simplifying automation integration without external brackets.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X230S Is Used
Material Handling Gates
The 230 mm stroke and 2513 N push force efficiently operate diverter gates and stops on conveyor lines, with the built-in magnet providing end-of-stroke confirmation.
Automated Clamping
Ideal for jig and fixture clamping in CNC machining. The adjustable cushion protects workpieces from impact, while the magnet enables sensor-based cycle start interlocks.
Packaging Presses
Delivers consistent force for case sealing and light stamping in packaging machinery. The tie-rod design allows easy maintenance in high-cycle environments.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X230S the Right Cylinder?
The SC80 bore sits between the lighter SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) and the heavier SC100 (3927 N at 0.5 MPa). If your load requires more force, stepping up to the 100 mm bore is recommended; for a more compact footprint with sufficient force, the 63 mm bore is a strong alternative. Always match the replacement cylinder across five points: bore, stroke, port thread (PT), mounting accessory, and magnet option (-S).
For this 230 mm stroke, side loads should be avoided. If the rod must bear a lateral force, use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
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 SC80X230S 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so you can directly mount AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the barrel to detect piston position without any additional mounting hardware.
