About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X60SFA
The AirTAC SC80X60SFA is an 80 mm bore, 60 mm stroke tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for short-stroke positioning tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling precise end-of-stroke detection. The FA front rectangular flange (F-SC80FA) allows rigid mounting to a panel or machine face, making it ideal for compact push/pull applications.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X60SFA Is Used
Part Stops & Gates
The 60 mm stroke and 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa reliably actuates part stops and divert gates on packaging and assembly conveyors, with the -S magnet confirming gate position.
Clamping & Pressing
Front flange mounting provides a stable, rigid setup for clamping fixtures and light press tools, where the 28 mm cushion absorbs impact at the end of the short stroke.
Sensor-Controlled Ejectors
The built-in magnet enables precise sensor feedback to confirm full extension or retraction in automated ejector and sorting mechanisms, preventing cycle errors.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X60SFA the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs roughly 2500 N of force at standard plant air pressure; for lighter loads around 1500 N, stepping down to the SC63 bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption. This 60 mm stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for the 80 mm bore.
To ensure a direct replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT port thread, FA front flange mounting, and the -S magnet for sensor compatibility. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile 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 SC80X60SFA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, 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 reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and its body length is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. It can only directly replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, port thread, mounting, and magnet option.
