The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X700SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 700mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC80X700SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore and a 700 mm stroke, this model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the load smoothly.
This variant includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and is equipped with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals (-H), shifting the operating temperature range from the standard -20 to +70 °C up to 0 to +150 °C. The body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 882 mm, and the PT3/8 port thread ensures straightforward pneumatic connections.

The Viton seals allow this cylinder to operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 150°C, making it suitable for actuators near ovens, autoclaves, or foundry equipment where standard seals would fail.
With 700 mm of travel and 4523 N of force at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder is ideal for pusher or lift-and-carry stations on packaging and assembly lines, especially where end-of-stroke position sensing is required.
The built-in magnet enables precise, non-contact position feedback via reed or solid-state sensors, allowing the control system to verify clamp engagement or part ejection in automated machining cells.
For applications requiring more force, stepping up to the 100 mm bore SC100 series provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact cylinder is sufficient, the 63 mm bore SC63 series offers 1559 N at the same pressure. With a stroke of 700 mm, the 25 mm rod has a significant unsupported length; side loads or high-speed operation can cause rod bending. An external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the rod bearings and seals.
To ensure a drop-in replacement, match five key specifications: 80 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensors, and the Viton seal material for high-temperature compatibility. This is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
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 SC80X700SH is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain its position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered, the piston will drift. For load holding, you must add an external rod brake or a pilot-operated check valve.
