About the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80AX550S
The AirTAC SE80AX550S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding linear motion tasks. It delivers a robust 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa and utilizes a 25 mm diameter SUS420J2 stainless steel rod, making it highly suitable for corrosive or washdown environments where standard carbon steel would fail.
This extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, presenting a clean, compact profile that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting localized corrosion. Equipped with a built-in magnet, the cylinder seamlessly integrates with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors to track piston position across its 550 mm travel. The field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to fine-tune end-of-stroke deceleration, protecting payloads from harsh mechanical impacts.

Where the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80AX550S Is Used
Palletizing Drum Dispensers
Drives the lift mechanism for stainless steel drum handling in food-grade washdown zones, utilizing the 2513 N push force and the SUS420J2 corrosion-resistant rod.
Automated Crate Diverters
Actuates heavy-duty routing gates on packaging conveyors, where the 550 mm stroke provides the reach needed to pivot large product flows cleanly.
Pharmaceutical Washdown Stations
Positions spray manifolds inside cleanroom enclosures, relying on the adjustable end cushions to prevent sudden mechanical stops during high-speed retraction.
Is the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80AX550S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 80 mm bore makes sense when your application requires substantial thrust, such as the 2513 N push force generated at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands less force, stepping down to the 63 mm bore yields 1559 N of push force, whereas scaling up to the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N for heavier assemblies. Because this is a standard double-acting cylinder, it cannot hold a load in place if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; for fail-safe position holding, consider the AirTAC BSE rod-lock variant.
At a 550 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod and its internal bearing face increased bending moments under any side loading. For optimal seal and bearing life, pair this unit with an external linear guide to absorb radial stresses and prevent rod deflection. As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, it serves as a dimensionally interchangeable drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, simplifying retrofits using the standard PT3/8 port and your chosen mounting hardware.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE 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 (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80AX550S FAQ
The SE80AX550S generates 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 3518 N, with a maximum push capacity of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features an 80 mm bore, a 550 mm stroke, a PT3/8 port, and an M20x1.5 rod-end thread.
No, the SE80AX550S is a standard double-acting cylinder and the piston will drift if air pressure is lost or the control valve is centered. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of the stroke to soften impacts; they do not function as a mechanical brake. For secure load holding, an external rod lock or the AirTAC BSE series is required.
