The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X295S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 295mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC80X295S delivers 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a strong mid-range actuator for industrial automation. This 80 mm bore double-acting cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT3/8 ports, and a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to absorb energy and reduce end-of-stroke impact.
With the built-in magnet (suffix -S), this unit is ready for position sensing using AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors that clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel. The 295 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 80 mm bore, and the body length A of 182 mm keeps the overall footprint compact.

The 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa and 295 mm stroke suit medium-duty pushers, diverters, and lift gates on conveyor lines, where the built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation via CMSG sensors.
Delivers consistent clamping force for welding jigs, assembly stations, and test fixtures. The adjustable cushion protects tooling from impact, and the magnet allows sequence verification.
Ideal for case packers, stretch wrappers, and pallet dispensers requiring a 295 mm linear stroke. The 25 mm rod diameter provides good column strength for straight-line pushing tasks.
For applications needing slightly less force, the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. If higher force is required, stepping up to the 100 mm bore SC100 delivers 3927 N at the same pressure. The 295 mm stroke on this 25 mm rod is moderate; however, any side load should be managed with an external guide or linear bearing to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 295 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting configuration. This is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile unit, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC series or equivalent tie-rod designs.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa supply pressure, the cylinder produces 2513 N extending (push) and 2268 N retracting (pull). 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 on the piston, making the SC80X295S fully compatible with AirTAC CMSG (reed) and DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors that mount externally on the tie-rod barrel without any modification.
