The AirTAC SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X344S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 344mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X344S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa operating pressure. Its 25 mm diameter rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable end-of-stroke deceleration for a 344 mm stroke, making it a solid mid-range actuator for general automation.
This model features a built-in magnet (suffix -S), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing. The SC series is a tie-rod design, shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, with PT1/8 ports and an M20x1.5 rod thread.

The 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa easily operates diverter gates and stops on conveyor lines, while the built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation with CMSG sensors.
Delivers up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa for holding parts during machining or assembly. The adjustable cushion protects tooling by softening impact at the end of the 344 mm stroke.
The 344 mm stroke provides enough reach to push boxes or trays onto a pallet. The magnet allows sensor feedback to verify full extension and retraction in automated cells.
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the SC100 bore provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If space is tight and the load is lighter, the SC63 bore delivers 1559 N. The 344 mm stroke is within the 1500 mm max standard stroke for 80 mm bore, but always check for side loads: an unsupported rod at this extension can bend under radial force—consider an external guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not purely axial.
When replacing an existing unit, match five points: 80 mm bore, 344 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting style. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix means this cylinder has a built-in magnet, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors can be clamped directly onto the barrel to detect piston position.
