About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X570TC
The SC80X570TC is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 570 mm stroke, factory-assembled with a centre trunnion pivot mount. At 0.5 MPa air pressure it produces 2513 N pushing force and 2268 N on the retract stroke, while at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa the push force reaches 4523 N — a capable mid-range actuator for swinging or pivoting loads.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male knuckle threads and PT3/8 port connections. The adjustable air cushion at each end (28 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly, and the total extended body length is approximately 752 mm (body length A of 182 mm plus the 570 mm stroke). The TC suffix denotes the centre trunnion mounting style, supplied complete with the TCM1 trunnion bracket (order code F-SC80TC) for easy installation into a pivoting structure.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X570TC Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gates
The 570 mm stroke and centre trunnion mount allow the cylinder to pivot as it extends, swinging a diverter gate or flap across a conveyor line to sort packages by destination.
Welding Fixture Clamps
Delivers up to 4523 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa. The trunnion mount lets the cylinder body pivot, accommodating the arc motion of a clamping arm on a welding or assembly fixture.
Wastewater Screen Rakes
Used to pivot a rake arm across a bar screen in a water treatment channel. The tie-rod construction and adjustable cushioning handle wet, demanding environments with repetitive cycling.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X570TC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs between roughly 2500 N and 4500 N of push force at typical shop air pressures. If the load is lighter, stepping down to a 63 mm bore saves space and air (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa); for heavier demands the 100 mm bore delivers 3927 N at the same 0.5 MPa. Always match replacement cylinders on five points: 80 mm bore, 570 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the TCM1 bracket, and the absence of a built-in magnet.
At 570 mm of stroke the unsupported rod length is significant. Any side load, even a small one, creates a bending moment on the 25 mm rod and the rod bearing. For applications where the load is not guided externally, add an external linear guide or switch to a guided cylinder to protect the rod and bearing from premature wear and seal leakage.
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 SC80X570TC FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar) the 80 mm bore SC cylinder delivers 3518 N of push force and 3175 N of pull force on the retract stroke. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, giving a theoretical push of 5026 N.
No, the SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter in overall length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The mounting dimensions and body length A (182 mm for the 80 bore) are not interchangeable with ISO 15552. This cylinder is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod cylinder with the same bore, stroke, PT port, and TC centre trunnion mount.
