About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X130SH
The SC50X130SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, combining a 50 mm bore with a 130 mm stroke. This model delivers a push force of 1374 N at 0.7 MPa and features a 20 mm diameter piston rod with an M16x1.5 male thread, providing robust linear actuation for medium-duty tasks.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix), it allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors on the barrel for precise position feedback. The -H suffix specifies Viton (FKM) seals, extending the operating temperature range to 0–150 °C, making this cylinder suitable for high-temperature environments where standard TPU seals would degrade.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X130SH Is Used
High-Temperature Automation
With Viton seals rated for 0–150 °C, this cylinder is ideal for actuators near ovens, autoclaves, or foundry equipment where ambient heat would damage standard seals.
Sensor-Monitored Clamping
The built-in magnet allows CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm full extension and retraction, making it perfect for automated clamping fixtures in CNC machining or welding cells.
Hot-Material Sorting Gates
Use this cylinder to actuate diverter gates on conveyors handling hot materials. The 1374 N push force at 0.7 MPa easily manages heavy gate mechanisms.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X130SH the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring slightly less force, consider stepping down to a 40 mm bore, which provides 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. If your load demands a higher safety margin, the 63 mm bore offers a significant jump to 2182 N at the same pressure. Always ensure the 20 mm rod is adequately supported if side loads are present.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: the 50 mm bore, the 130 mm stroke, the PT (1/4) port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the high-temperature Viton seal specification. This ensures a direct functional replacement without modifying your sensor setup or pneumatic circuit.

- ✓ 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 SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X130SH FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the SC50X130SH generates a push force of 1374 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 1767 N, with a theoretical maximum of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code indicates a built-in magnet, which is specifically designed for mounting AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the cylinder barrel to detect piston position.
