The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X270STC 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 SC80X270STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 270 mm stroke suits medium-reach clamping, pressing, and material-transfer tasks where a compact tie-rod design is preferred over a longer ISO 15552 profile.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, plus a centre trunnion (TC) mount with TCM1 bracket (F-SC80TC) for pivoting applications. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration, while the PT1/4 port thread keeps plumbing straightforward.

The centre trunnion mount lets the cylinder swing as it extends, making it ideal for diverting packages or product on conveyor lines.
With 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and magnetic piston sensing, this cylinder confirms clamp position in automated welding or assembly fixtures.
The 270 mm stroke pushes bins or cartons off a line. The adjustable cushion absorbs impact at end of stroke, protecting the load and cylinder.
Choose the SC80 when your application needs roughly 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. If you can accept less force, stepping down to the SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) saves space; for heavier loads, the SC100 provides 3927 N at the same pressure. For this 270 mm stroke, ensure side loads are minimal or use an external guide—long unsupported rods can bend under off-axis forces.
For a direct replacement, match bore (80 mm), stroke (270 mm), port thread (PT), centre trunnion mount (TC with TCM1 bracket), and the built-in magnet (-S). The SC is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 interchangeable unit, so dimensional checks against the original AirTAC SC are essential.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it produces 2513 N extending and 2268 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 4523 N. Always size for your working pressure.
No. The SC80 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if pressure is exhausted or the directional valve is centred. For load holding without live pressure, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
