The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X590S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 590mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X590S is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 590 mm stroke suits medium-reach transfer and clamping tasks, with a 25 mm piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to absorb energy.
This model includes the -S suffix for a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for contactless position sensing. The total extended body length is approximately 772 mm (182 mm body length A + 590 mm stroke).

The 590 mm stroke moves components between conveyor lanes or workstations. The built-in magnet provides end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
With 2513 N at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder securely clamps medium-sized assemblies during welding or bonding, while the adjustable cushion reduces impact at full extension.
The 80 mm bore provides the force to divert packages or parts on a line. Sensor feedback from the -S magnet confirms gate position for reliable automation sequencing.
Choose the SC80 when your application needs roughly 2500 N of push force at standard plant pressure. If you require more force, step up to the SC100 bore (3927 N at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC63 delivers 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. At 590 mm stroke, the rod is extended significantly—ensure side loads are minimal or use an external guide to protect the rod bearing from bending moments.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 590 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and your existing mounting accessory (this unit is basic, without brackets). The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (approx. 73 psi), the push force is 2513 N and pull force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet inside 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 additional brackets.
