About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X470S
The SC80X470S is an 80 mm bore double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 470 mm stroke, factory-equipped with a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. At 0.5 MPa it generates 2513 N pushing force and 2268 N pulling force, rising to 4523 N push at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.
This tie-rod cylinder uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT3/8 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end is 28 mm long, and the body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 652 mm. The standard TPU seals suit operating temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X470S Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gate
The 470 mm stroke and 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa reliably shift a diverter gate on a packaging or sortation conveyor. The built-in magnet lets CMSG sensors confirm gate position at each end of travel.
Clamping & Fixturing
With 4523 N of force available at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder provides robust clamping for CNC fixtures or welding jigs. The adjustable cushion softens the clamp contact, protecting the workpiece surface.
Pallet Stop & Lift
Use the SC80X470S as a heavy-duty pallet stop or lift station actuator. The 28 mm cushion absorbs the kinetic energy of a fast-moving 80 mm bore, and the magnetic piston enables end-of-stroke detection for automated warehouse logic.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X470S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs between roughly 2513 N (80 mm at 0.5 MPa) and 4523 N (80 mm at 0.9 MPa). If you need less force, stepping down to the 63 mm bore saves air and space (1559 N at 0.5 MPa); for more force, the 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For this 470 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to side loads—an unsupported 25 mm rod at this extension can bend under lateral force. Add an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder if side loading is present.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 470 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), 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
- ✓ 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 SC80X470S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the pushing force is 2513 N and the pulling force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the pushing force reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf (approx. 5030 N).
Yes. The -S suffix in SC80X470S means a magnet is built into the piston. You can clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel tie-rods to detect piston position without any additional brackets.
