About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X150N
The SC50X150N is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa operating pressure. With a 150 mm stroke and a 20 mm diameter piston rod, it suits medium-force clamping, pressing, and transfer tasks where a compact tie-rod design is preferred.
This model is fitted with NBR (nitrile) seals, offering good resilience and wear resistance in standard industrial environments. The cylinder body length A is 150 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 300 mm. Its PT1/4 ports and M16x1.5 rod thread make it straightforward to integrate into existing pneumatic circuits.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X150N Is Used
Part Transfer
Moves components between conveyor lanes or indexing stations with a 150 mm linear stroke, providing consistent push force for reliable positioning.
Light Press-Fit Assembly
Generates up to 1767 N at 0.9 MPa for pressing bushings, bearings, or pins into housings on semi-automatic assembly fixtures.
Clamping & Fixturing
Holds workpieces securely during machining or welding operations, using the cylinder's 982 N push at 0.5 MPa to maintain firm contact.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X150N the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. If space or weight is a constraint, the 40 mm bore SC40 delivers 628 N. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the absence of a magnet. This SC50X150N uses NBR seals; ensure the replacement matches this material if the environment contains specific oils or chemicals.
Quick checklist
- ✓ 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 SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X150N FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder produces 982 N extending (push) and 825 N retracting (pull). At 0.7 MPa, push force rises to 1374 N, and at the maximum 0.9 MPa operating pressure, it reaches 1767 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles. Use it to replace another AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, port thread, and mounting.
