The AirTAC Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X780S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 780mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC80X780S is a double-acting pneumatic tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 780 mm stroke suits long-reach material transfer and actuation tasks, with a 25 mm diameter piston rod providing robust linear guidance.
A built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for contactless position sensing. The adjustable air cushion at each end (28 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact at speeds up to 800 mm/s.

The 780 mm stroke moves components between distant conveyor stations, with magnetic sensors confirming full extension and retraction for interlock safety.
Pushes boxes or trays onto pallets with 2513 N of force at standard shop air. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke detection without external brackets.
Indexes fixtures across a 780 mm work envelope. Adjustable cushioning protects tooling at both ends, while the -S magnet provides position feedback to the PLC.
For applications needing more force, the SC100 bore delivers 3927 N at 0.5 MPa; for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC63 bore provides 1559 N. Always match bore, 780 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, and the -S magnet when replacing an existing SC cylinder.
At 780 mm stroke, the extended rod length increases the risk of side-load bending. Use an external guide rail or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial, or consider stepping up to the SC100 bore for a stiffer 25 mm rod assembly.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC80X780S generates 3518 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force on the retract stroke, based on the 80 mm bore and 25 mm rod diameter.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clip directly onto the barrel tie-rods for contactless position sensing.
