About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X720S
The SC80X720S is an 80 mm bore, 720 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 (up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa), making it a capable mid-range actuator for industrial linear motion. This model includes a built-in magnet, allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the barrel for precise, non-contact position feedback.
With a 25 mm diameter piston rod and an M20x1.5 rod thread, the cylinder provides robust guidance for tooling. The total extended body length is approximately 902 mm, calculated from the 182 mm base body length plus the 720 mm stroke. It features an adjustable pneumatic cushion of 28 mm at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The standard PT1/4 port supplies filtered air for operation from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X720S Is Used
Material Handling & Conveyors
The 720 mm stroke and 2513 N force at0.5 MPa efficiently drives long-reach diveters, stops, and transfers on packaging and assembly lines. The built-in magnet enables simple end-of-stroke sensing for sequencing.
Woodworking & Panel Processing
Provides the sustained push force for clamping and positioning large panels during CNC routing or edge-banding. The adjustable cushion protects the workpiece and machine from vibration at the stroke end.
Automated Storage & Retrieval
Acts as a horizontal pusher or lift assist in AS/RS systems. The 80 mm bore offers a good balance of force and air consumption for moving medium-weight bins or pallets over the 720 mm travel.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X720S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80X720S for applications needing its 2513 N push force at standard plant pressure. If your load requires less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore reduces push force to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, saving energy and space. For higher force demands, the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N at the same pressure. For this 720 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loads; an external guide or a guided cylinder is recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 720 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting style. This SC tie-rod cylinder is dimensionally shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder and is not a direct drop-in replacement for that standard.
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 SC80X720S FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of0.5 MPa, the cylinder provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 4523 N.
Yes. The '-S' suffix in the model code SC80X720S indicates a built-in magnet is installed in the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the cylinder barrel's tie-rod slots to detect piston position.
