About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X568TC
The AirTAC SC80X568TC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with an 80 mm bore and a non-standard 568 mm stroke, built for applications needing a long linear reach with pivoting freedom. Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion deliver smooth deceleration, while the centre trunnion mount (F-SC80TC, supplied with TCM1 bracket) lets the entire cylinder pivot around its midpoint as it cycles.
At 0.5 MPa this model pushes with 2513 N and pulls with 2268 N; at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, thrust rises to 4523 N. The total extended body length is approximately 750 mm (body length A of 182 mm plus the 568 mm stroke). The standard PT1/4 port and M20x1.5 rod thread match common pneumatic fittings, and the TPU seals cover a -20 to +70 °C working range.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X568TC Is Used
Long-Stroke Part Transfer
The 568 mm stroke shifts heavy workpieces or pallets between conveyor lanes. The centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to self-align during the long travel, preventing binding.
Pivoting Clamp or Press
With 4523 N of force at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder can power a pivoting press or welding clamp. The adjustable cushion absorbs energy at both ends of the 568 mm stroke, protecting tooling.
Divert Gate Actuation
Used on a sorting line, the SC80X568TC pushes a divert gate through a wide arc. The trunnion mount handles the angular motion, while the 25 mm rod resists buckling under the 2268 N pull force.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X568TC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80X568TC when your load needs the 2513 N push force of the 80 mm bore at 0.5 MPa. If that force is marginal, stepping up to the SC100 bore delivers 3927 N at the same pressure; if you need a lighter, more compact cylinder, the SC63 bore provides 1559 N. Because the stroke is 568 mm, the unsupported rod is long—always check for side loads. An external linear guide or a guided cylinder should be used if the load applies any lateral force, otherwise rod-bearing bending and premature seal wear will occur.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 568 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the TCM1 bracket, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model is not an ISO 15552 cylinder; it is a shorter AirTAC tie-rod design, so only another AirTAC SC80 of the same configuration will drop in without dimensional changes.
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 SC80X568TC FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 2513 N and pulls with 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force is 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore and stroke. The mounting dimensions, body length, and accessory interfaces are different. Only replace with another AirTAC SC80 cylinder matching the 568 mm stroke, PT ports, and TC centre trunnion mount.
