The AirTAC AirTAC SDA80X60BH Compact Cylinder | 80mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 60mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The AirTAC SDA80X60BH is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered for heavy-duty pneumatics within a minimal axial footprint. Its riveted assembly integrates the barrel, rear cover, and piston to deliver a substantial 2513.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa without the spatial demands of traditional round-body units. Equipped with a fluororubber (FKM) seal, this variant is purpose-built for elevated thermal and oil-resistance demands.
This specific configuration includes a 25 mm piston rod with a male M22x1.5 thread end for robust mechanical coupling, alongside PT3/8 air ports. The bore utilizes a fixed NBR bumper at each stroke terminus to absorb impact energy; it is not a field-adjustable air cushion, so high-velocity deployments should incorporate external shock absorbers. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host reed or electronic switches.

Drives heavy ejector pins in plastic injection molding machinery, utilizing the 2513.3 N extend force to break parts free from molds within a tight machinery footprint.
Squares heavy-gauge steel coils at the feed entry of a mechanical stamping press, relying on the rigid 25 mm male-threaded rod to endure industrial shock.
Raises lowerator forks handling dense palletized goods, where the FKM seals withstand continuous high-cycle thermal stress and lubricant exposure.
Selecting this 80 mm bore involves balancing your force requirements: stepping down to the SDA63 yields 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa, while upgrading to the SDA100 provides 3927 N. At 0.5 MPa, this model offers a safe working load of roughly 1508 N (about 60% of its capacity) and a vertical lift capability of approximately 128.1 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. When ordering, verify the 60 mm stroke, PT3/8 porting, male M22x1.5 rod thread, and the FKM seal option.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. The fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not function as a locking brake. If your machinery requires absolute position holding under load loss, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into the pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
This 80 mm bore cylinder generates 2513.3 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 3518.6 N push at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S piston magnet, meaning it cannot support AirTAC reed or electronic switches. You would need to specify the -S option to enable sensing. Additionally, it uses a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, so external shock absorption is recommended for high-energy loads.
