About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600SH
The SC80X600SH is an 80 mm bore, 600 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series. It generates a substantial push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a 25 mm diameter piston rod. The adjustable air cushion at each end, with a 28 mm cushion length, decelerates the piston smoothly to absorb energy and reduce end-of-stroke impact.
This specific model code includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors on the barrel, and the -H suffix specifies Viton (FKM) seals. This upgrades the operating temperature range to 0 to +150 °C, making the cylinder suitable for high-temperature or chemically aggressive environments. The body length is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 782 mm, and it uses standard PT1/4 ports.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600SH Is Used
High-Temperature Actuation
With Viton seals rated for 0 to +150 °C, this cylinder reliably operates in autoclaves, drying ovens, and near heat sources where standard seals would fail, providing 4523 N of push force.
Material Handling & Sorting
The 600 mm stroke and 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for pusher arms and diverters on wide conveyor lines. The built-in magnet enables precise end-of-stroke position sensing with CMSG sensors.
Heavy Part Clamping
Delivers up to 4523 N of clamping force for welding fixtures or assembly jigs. The adjustable cushioning protects the tooling and workpiece from impact damage during high-speed clamping cycles.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X600SH the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a higher force is required, stepping up to the 100 mm bore SC100 series offers 3927 N at the same pressure. Always match the bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, and the -S magnet option when replacing an existing unit. At this 600 mm stroke length, the piston rod is extended significantly; any side loading will create a bending moment on the rod bearing. For non-axial loads, use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to protect the rod and seals from premature wear and ensure reliable operation.
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 SC80X600SH 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. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The SC80X600SH is a double-acting cylinder and will not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston at the end of stroke; they are not a locking or holding brake. To hold a load safely without pressure, you must add an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve in the circuit.
