About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880
The AirTAC SC80X880 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 2513 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa. With an 80 mm bore and a generous 880 mm stroke, this model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT3/8 ports, making it a robust choice for medium-to-long linear movements.
This tie-rod cylinder features an adjustable air cushion (28 mm length) at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact. The total extended body length is approximately 1062 mm (182 mm body length A plus 880 mm stroke). The standard TPU seals provide reliable operation in temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880 Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
Pushes or pulls product carriers across an 880 mm span on packaging or assembly lines, where the 2513 N force at 0.5 MPa easily handles medium-weight pallets.
Panel Indexing in Woodworking
Advances large wooden panels between saw or routing stations. The adjustable cushion protects the tooling and workpiece from vibration at the end of the 880 mm stroke.
Diverter Gate Actuation
Operates a diverter gate on a gravity or powered conveyor. The 80 mm bore provides ample force to shift a gate under material load, with the long stroke allowing a full-open passage.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC80 when your application needs force between the SC63 (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the SC100 (3927 N push at 0.5 MPa). For this 880 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally or use a guided cylinder to protect the 25 mm rod from bending under side forces; long, unsupported strokes are vulnerable to rod bearing damage.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 880 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (no included bracket), and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model is a standard SC tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
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 SC80X880 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating 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 increases to 4523 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
For strokes over 300 mm, side loads can cause rod deflection and premature seal wear. Always guide the load externally with a linear rail or rod guide. If the load cannot be perfectly aligned, consider upgrading to an AirTAC SCT multi-position cylinder or adding an external guide unit to absorb bending moments.
