About the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880TC
The AirTAC SC80X880TC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa (4523 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). Its 25 mm diameter piston rod and 28 mm adjustable air cushion handle the 880 mm stroke smoothly, making this actuator a strong choice for medium-to-long linear movements in automated machinery.
This model is factory-configured with a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (order code F-SC80TC). The trunnion allows the cylinder to pivot during operation, accommodating angular motion in the actuated linkage. Ports are standard PT1/8, and the body length A is 182 mm, giving an extended length of approximately 1062 mm.

Where the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880TC Is Used
Conveyor Diverter Gates
The 880 mm stroke and pivoting TC mount suit long-reach diverter arms on packaging or sorting conveyors, smoothly redirecting products between lanes.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers 4523 N of clamping force at 0.9 MPa for holding large workpieces in CNC machining centres or welding jigs, with the trunnion allowing the cylinder to swing clear for loading.
Agricultural Equipment Actuation
Operates chute doors or flow gates on harvesters and spreaders. The 0.15-1.0 MPa pressure range works with standard mobile pneumatic systems, and the trunnion mount handles the pivoting linkage.
Is the Airtac SC80 Standard Cylinder SC80X880TC the Right Cylinder?
For higher force at the same pressure, step up to the SC100 bore (3927 N push at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC63 bore offers 1559 N. With an 880 mm stroke, ensure the rod is protected from side loads—consider an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial, as long, unsupported rods are vulnerable to bending.
When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 80 mm bore, 880 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the TCM1 bracket, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This ensures dimensional and functional interchangeability with another AirTAC SC series tie-rod cylinder.
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 SC80X880TC FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC80 bore generates 3518 N of push force. The pull force on the retract stroke is 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, due to the area reduction from the 25 mm piston rod.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than a comparable ISO 15552 profile cylinder (body length A is 182 mm for the SC80). It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552. Only replace it with another AirTAC SC80 tie-rod cylinder matching the stroke, PT ports, and TC trunnion mount.
