The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X70TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 70mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X70TC is an 80 mm bore, 70 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder supplied with a centre trunnion mount for pivoting applications. At 0.5 MPa it generates 2513 N pushing force and 2268 N pulling force, rising to 4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.
This model features a 25 mm diameter piston rod with M20x1.5 male threads and PT3/8 port connections. The 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, while the TC centre trunnion (supplied with TCM1 bracket, order code F-SC80TC) allows the cylinder to swing through an arc, ideal for clamping and lever-drive mechanisms.

The pivoting TC mount and 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa allow the SC80X70TC to swing diverter gates on packaging and sortation conveyors, directing product flows reliably.
Centre trunnion mounting provides a clean swing arc for clamping arms in welding jigs. The 28 mm cushion absorbs impact at stroke end, protecting the fixture from vibration.
With 4523 N of thrust at 0.9 MPa, this cylinder actuates quarter-turn ball or butterfly valves via a scotch-yoke mechanism, where the trunnion mount absorbs reaction torque.
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs roughly 2500 N of force at standard shop air; if you can accept less force, the 63 mm bore delivers 1559 N at 0.5 MPa and saves space. For heavier loads, the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N at the same pressure. The 70 mm stroke is a standard length within the 80 mm bore’s 1500 mm maximum.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 70 mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and confirm whether a magnet (-S) is needed. The centre trunnion mount lets the cylinder pivot, so ensure the TCM1 bracket and pin are correctly sized for your clevis.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar) the 80 mm bore generates 3518 N extending and 3175 N retracting. The maximum operating force at 0.9 MPa is 4523 N push / 4081 N pull.
The TC suffix means the cylinder body includes the centre trunnion bosses. It is supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC80TC) and is designed to pivot on that bracket. If you need a fixed foot mount instead, order the basic SC80X70 with an LB foot bracket (F-SC80LB) added separately.
