The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X270 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 270mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X270 double-acting pneumatic cylinder provides a robust 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 4523 N at the maximum 0.9 MPa operating pressure. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion are engineered to handle mid-range industrial loads with smooth deceleration, making the 270 mm stroke a practical choice for press and clamping applications.
With a compact body length of 182 mm and PT3/8 ports, this tie-rod cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile, saving space on the machine frame. The standard TPU seals offer reliable performance from -20 to +70 °C, and the variable cushion allows fine-tuning for your specific payload and speed.

The 270 mm stroke and 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa reliably stops and transfers pallets on conveyor lines, with the adjustable cushion absorbing impact for smooth, quiet operation.
Delivers up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa for pressing bearings, bushings, or pins. The 25 mm rod resists buckling under the high compressive forces of a press-fit operation.
Actuates a diverter gate or chute in material handling. The 28 mm cushion length provides effective deceleration for the gate assembly, preventing metal-on-metal impact at the stroke end.
For a 270 mm stroke, the SC80 bore gives a solid force floor of 2513 N at standard shop air. If your load is lighter and you need faster cycling, stepping down to an SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption. For heavier tooling, the SC100 delivers 3927 N at the same pressure. At this stroke length, ensure the rod is not exposed to significant side loads; an external guide or a guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bearing wear and bending.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic (no accessory) mounting, and no magnet. This model is a direct swap for another AirTAC SC80X270 tie-rod cylinder only.
Quick checklist
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 increases to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length (182 mm for the SC80) than a comparable ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod cylinder with the same stroke, port thread, and mounting configuration.
