About the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX50S
The AirTAC SAI50X50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its 50 mm bore and 50 mm stroke create a highly compact, square-footprint actuator ideal for space-constrained automated machinery. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits tie rods, providing a clean exterior that drops directly into existing ISO 15552 mounting interfaces.
This specific configuration includes a -S magnet for seamless integration with CMSE and DMSE series reed switches via the dual-side sensor grooves. It is built with an SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid or mildly chemically exposed environments, and utilizes PT tapered port threads to ensure a robust, leak-free pneumatic connection.

Where the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX50S Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Provides reliable 982 N clamping pressure at 0.5 MPa for holding workpieces securely during machining, welding, or assembly operations.
Package Diverting
The 50 mm stroke actuates diverter arms and sorting gates rapidly at speeds up to 800 mm/s, ensuring smooth product flow on packaging lines.
Ejector Stations
Ideal for knocking finished parts out of molds or press dies, utilizing the SUS420J2 stainless rod to withstand repetitive impact and shop-floor moisture.
Is the Airtac SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX50S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires roughly 1000 N of force at 0.5 MPa, which is a significant step up from the 40 mm bore (628 N push) but much more compact than the 63 mm bore (1559 N push). The 50 mm stroke provides ample extension for short clamping, ejecting, or gating tasks without taking up excessive machine real estate. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it requires continuous air pressure to move and hold the rod; it will drift if pressure is lost. For applications requiring true position holding without live air, consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variants.
When replacing an actuator, verify the 50 mm stroke, 50 mm bore, G1/4 PT porting, and standard mounting accessory type (such as an FA flange or TC trunnion). Ensure you specify the -S magnet option if your control system relies on electronic position confirmation.

- ✓ 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 SAI50 Standard Cylinder SAI50AX50S FAQ
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore generates 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates this model includes a magnet and features dual-side sensor grooves on the extruded barrel, making it fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE and DMSE series solid-state and reed switches.
