About the AirTAC ASQ50
The AirTAC ASQ50 is a single-acting, spring-return compact (ultra-thin) cylinder (push type) with a 50 mm bore and a 20 mm piston rod. Compressed air extends the rod and a built-in spring retracts it when the air is released, so the rod rests retracted; only one port takes air. Catalog output with the spring force already deducted is 881.7 N push at 0.5 MPa and 1274.4 N at 0.7 MPa. The spring stroke has no air behind it, so it must not carry a load.
All ASQ50 versions share 1/4" air ports, an M10×1.5 female rod thread (B versions have a M18×1.5 male rod end) and rubber bumpers at both ends. The cylinder runs on filtered air between 0.2 and 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 50 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 24 stock order codes with strokes from 5 to 30 mm; catalog standard strokes run up to 30 mm.

Catalog output force (Ø50 mm)
| Pressure | Push (spring deducted) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 881.7 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1274.4 N |
AirTAC catalog values for the single-acting push type: air force on the full bore less the return-spring force. The spring stroke delivers no rated force.

Where the ASQ50 Is Used
General automation
About 881.7 N at 0.5 MPa covers most pushing, lifting and indexing tasks.
Clamping fixtures
Foot or flange mounting holds the cylinder rigid for clamps.
Doors, gates and levers
Clevis and trunnion versions drive mechanisms that swing.
Choosing the Right ASQ50 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length, weight and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Every code on this page is the basic version without a mounting code: the cylinder is fixed through its own mounting holes.
Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors; B gives a male threaded rod end instead of the standard female thread.
AirTAC ASQ50 FAQ
Air extends the rod with about 881.7 N at 0.5 MPa (catalog value, spring force deducted); the internal spring retracts it when the port is vented. The force does not depend on the stroke code.
No. The return stroke is driven only by the internal spring, and AirTAC specifies that single-acting cylinders must not be loaded on it. Use a double-acting model if both directions must do work.
1/4" ports, PT thread as standard.
Every code on this page is the basic version without a mounting code; the cylinder is fixed through its own mounting holes.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke, mounting and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
0.2 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa) and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
No. You can order a single ASQ50. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
