The AirTAC Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X125CB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 125mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC50X125CB is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 1767 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. With a 125 mm stroke and a 20 mm diameter piston rod, it suits medium-force clamping, pressing, and positioning tasks where a pivoting rear mount is required.
This model features a rear double clevis (CB) mount, allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation to accommodate angular movement. The body length A is 150 mm, and the adjustable air cushion at each end is 21 mm, providing reliable end-of-stroke deceleration for smooth cycling.

Controls chute deflectors or linkage adjustments on agricultural machinery, where the rear clevis mount absorbs frame flex and misalignment.
Actuates a pivoting diverter arm on a conveyor line, using the CB mount to swing the cylinder body as the arm moves between lanes.
Powers a pivoting clamp arm in a welding jig, holding parts securely with 982 N of force while the clevis allows the cylinder to follow the clamp's arc.
For higher force, step up to the 63 mm bore SC63 series, which provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. If space is tight and less force is acceptable, the 40 mm bore offers 628 N. This 125 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore. To ensure a correct replacement, match five points: 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, PT port thread, CB rear double clevis mounting (using accessory F-SC50CB), and the non-magnetic piston configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, push force is 982 N and pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
Yes, if the original is a 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke tie-rod cylinder with a rear double clevis. Verify the clevis pin diameter and width match the AirTAC CB mount, and confirm the port thread is PT 1/4. The CB mount allows the cylinder to pivot, so ensure the air connections use flexible hose to accommodate the movement.
