About the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80BX500SN
The AirTAC SE80BX500SN is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding linear motion. It delivers a substantial 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa (3518 N at 0.7 MPa) across a 500 mm stroke. Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and an NBR seal, this variant is purpose-built for corrosive environments and washdown duty where standard carbon steel rods would fail prematurely.
The extruded aluminum barrel eliminates external tie rods, yielding a compact, flush-mounting profile that resists corrosion and simplifies sensor placement along three integrated grooves. Because the unit includes a built-in magnet, it is fully primed for non-contact position sensing using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both stroke ends allows you to dial in deceleration to soften hard mechanical impacts at high cycling speeds.

Where the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80BX500SN Is Used
Bottling Line CIP Washdown
The SUS304 rod and NBR seal withstand caustic washdowns in beverage bottling lines, providing 2513 N push to actuate diverter gates during clean-in-place cycles.
Seafood Processing Reject Arm
Leveraging the corrosion resistance of the stainless rod, this cylinder drives a heavy reject arm on a seafood sorting conveyor, using its 500 mm stroke to push oversized catches into secondary lanes.
Palletizer Flap Control
Utilizing the 3518 N extend force at 0.7 MPa, this cylinder manages heavy pneumatic flap doors on a palletizer infeed, benefiting from the field-adjustable cushion to soften end-stops at high speed.
Is the Airtac SE80 Standard Cylinder SE80BX500SN the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 80 mm bore makes sense when your load demands the 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa provided here. If your application is lighter, stepping down to the 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push, whereas moving up to the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push, giving you clear sizing boundaries. As a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it serves as a drop-in dimensional replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders, sharing standardized mounting hardware like FA front flanges or TC trunnions.
Remember that a plain SE cylinder does not hold its position or load when air is exhausted or a valve is centered; the piston will drift. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and is not a locking brake. For position holding without live pressure, consider the BSE rod lock variant. Furthermore, at 500 mm of stroke, the unsupported mass of the piston and rod introduces bending moments on the rod bearing under side loads; an external guide rail is recommended to prevent premature wear.
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 SE80BX500SN FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 3518 N. The maximum push force is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
