About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X525
The SC80X525 is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 525 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for medium-to-heavy linear motion tasks.
This genuine AirTAC SC cylinder uses a PT3/8 port and M20x1.5 rod thread, with a body length A of 182 mm. The 525 mm stroke is within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, making it a readily available configuration for industrial automation.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X525 Is Used
Package Diverting
Provides the 525 mm reach and 2513 N force to push cartons off a main conveyor line onto a spur, with adjustable cushioning to protect the packaging at end-of-stroke.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers consistent clamping force for woodworking or metal fabrication jigs. The 28 mm cushion length absorbs impact, reducing vibration and part shift during high-cycle clamping.
Pallet Layer Forming
Positions slip sheets or tier sheets with a 525 mm stroke. The 80 mm bore offers the force reserve needed to slide heavy sheets across a pallet load without stalling.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X525 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X525 when your application requires the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa that an 80 mm bore provides. If you need lower force, the SC63 series offers 1559 N; for higher force, step up to the SC100 bore delivering 3927 N at the same pressure. Always match the bore, 525 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, and basic mounting when replacing an existing cylinder.
For this 525 mm stroke length, side loads must be carefully managed. The 25 mm rod can experience bending moments under lateral force. Use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bearing wear and ensure long service life, rather than relying on the cylinder rod to bear the side load directly.
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 SC80X525 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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.
No. The SC80X525 is a tie-rod cylinder designed for axial loads. For a 525 mm stroke, side or radial loads will cause rod bending and premature seal and bearing failure. You must use an external guide rail system or a guided cylinder variant to absorb any lateral forces.
