About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600
The SC80X600 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). With an 80 mm bore and a 600 mm stroke, it uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT3/8 ports, providing a robust linear drive for medium-to-long travel applications.
This model features a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 782 mm. The standard TPU seals suit operating temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600 Is Used
Material Transfer
Pushes or diverts boxes and pallets on conveyor lines, where the 600 mm stroke reaches across wide belt sections.
Clamping & Fixturing
Applies 2513 N of clamping force in welding jigs or assembly fixtures, holding large workpieces securely during processing.
Farm Implement Actuation
Operates chutes, gates, or diverters on agricultural machinery, handling dusty conditions with the standard TPU seals.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 when the SC63's 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa is insufficient; step up to the SC100 (3927 N at 0.5 MPa) if higher force is needed. For this 600 mm stroke, side loads must be managed carefully—an unsupported 25 mm rod at full extension is vulnerable to bending. Use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (no brackets), and no magnet. This SC cylinder is a tie-rod design, shorter than an ISO 15552 profile, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 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 SC80X600 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, 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.
No. The SC80X600 is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke ends; it is not a locking or holding brake. For load holding, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod lock.
