About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X712
The AirTAC SC80X712 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore and a 712 mm stroke, this model is built for medium-to-long linear movements in automation, featuring a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a PT3/8 port for reliable pneumatic connections.
This cylinder includes 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 894 mm. As a genuine AirTAC SC series unit, it operates on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa and uses standard TPU seals for a temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X712 Is Used
Material Transfer
Pushes or pulls heavy totes and pallets across roller conveyors in distribution centres, using the 2513 N force at standard line pressure.
Press-Fit Assembly
Provides the controlled 4523 N maximum thrust for pressing bearings, bushings, or pins into housings on automated assembly stations.
Bin Diverter Gate
Actuates a large diverter chute in bulk handling, directing material flow between two downstream processes with a long 712 mm travel.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X712 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly less force, the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. If higher force is required, stepping up to the 100 mm bore SC100 delivers 3927 N at the same pressure. Always match replacement cylinders on all five key points: bore (80 mm), stroke (712 mm), port thread (PT3/8), mounting accessory (basic, no bracket), and magnet option (none on this model).
With a stroke of 712 mm, the unsupported rod length is significant. Any side load, even minor, can cause rod bending or premature bearing wear. For such applications, consider pairing this cylinder with an external linear guide or switching to a guided cylinder assembly to protect the rod and seals.
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 SC80X712 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 SC80X712 is a double-acting cylinder and does not lock or hold position when pressure is exhausted or the valve is centred. The piston will drift. For load holding, you must add an external rod brake, a mechanical lock, or a pilot-operated check valve.
