About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X80S
The AirTAC SC80X80S is an 80 mm bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 80 mm stroke suits short-transfer and clamping tasks where a compact footprint matters. The built-in magnet lets you mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly on the barrel for clean, tool-free end-of-stroke detection.
Inside this cylinder, a 25 mm diameter rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion at each end absorb kinetic energy smoothly, protecting tooling from impact. The body length A is 182 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 262 mm. Ports are PT3/8 with an M20x1.5 rod thread. Operating temperature range is -20 to +70 °C with the standard TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X80S Is Used
Sensor-Equipped Clamping
The -S magnet allows direct mounting of reed or solid-state sensors on the barrel, giving reliable clamp/unclamp confirmation in automated welding or assembly fixtures.
Short-Stroke Part Transfer
With 80 mm of travel and 2513 N of push at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder moves small pallets or trays between conveyor lanes in packaging lines.
Press-Fit & Staking
The 4523 N force at 0.9 MPa handles light press-fit insertions. Sensor feedback confirms the rod reached full extension for quality control.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X80S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC80 bore when your application needs around 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. If you can drop to roughly 1559 N, stepping down to a 63 mm bore saves space and weight; for heavier loads near 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, move up to the 100 mm bore. The 80 mm stroke is short, so side-load concerns are minimal, but always align the rod with the load axis.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 80 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and any mounting accessory. The SC is a tie-rod design and is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinders of the same configuration.
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 SC80X80S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 2513 N and pull force is 2268 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 4523 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix means a magnet is built into the piston, so you can clamp CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel's sensor groove without any brackets.
