The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X730 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 730mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC80X730 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 4523 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore and a 730 mm stroke, this model is built for medium-to-long linear movements in automation, featuring a 25 mm diameter piston rod and a 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the load smoothly.
This configuration uses the standard TPU seals for a working temperature range of -20 to +70 °C and PT3/8 threaded ports. The total extended body length is approximately 912 mm, making it a compact alternative to longer ISO 15552 profile cylinders while still providing robust force output for pressing, lifting, and clamping tasks.

Actuates diverter gates on 730 mm wide conveyor sections, using the 2513 N push force to reliably shift packages or pallets between lanes at moderate speed.
Provides the controlled 4523 N maximum thrust for pressing bearings or bushings into housings, with the adjustable cushion preventing impact damage at the end of the 730 mm stroke.
Raises and lowers a platform in a pick-and-place station, where the 25 mm rod and tie-rod construction offer stable guidance when paired with an external vertical rail.
Select the SC80 bore when your application needs between 2513 N and 4523 N of push force; if you require more, step up to the SC100 bore which provides 3927 N at 0.5 MPa. For lower force needs, the SC63 bore delivers 1559 N at the same pressure. At a 730 mm stroke, the unsupported 25 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads—always use an external linear guide or rod-alignment coupler to protect the rod bearing and piston seals.
For a direct replacement, match five points: 80 mm bore, 730 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and confirm the magnet option (this model has no built-in magnet, so sensors require external mounting brackets). This cylinder is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 types.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa air 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 reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf, but the cylinder should be operated within the 0.15–1.0 MPa range.
No. The SC80X730 has a 25 mm rod that will bend if subjected to side loading at full extension. You must use an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler to absorb transverse forces and protect the rod bearing and piston seals from uneven wear.
