The AirTAC Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X1750S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 1750mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC50X1750 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm bore and an extra-long 1750 mm stroke, built for linear applications that demand extended reach. At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 982 N of push force, rising to a robust 1767 N at 0.9 MPa, driven by a 20 mm diameter piston rod with M16x1.5 male threads.
Because the 1750 mm stroke exceeds the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore, this is a non-standard, made-to-order configuration. The cylinder body length (A) is 150 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1900 mm. It features an adjustable pneumatic cushion (21 mm length) to decelerate the piston at stroke ends, and PT1/4 ports for standard air connections.

Ideal for pushing pallets or large boxes across wide conveyor transfer stations where a 1750 mm reach is needed to clear the conveyor bed.
Used in a vertically guided assembly to raise and lower large panels or doors over a 1.75-meter travel distance in automated work cells.
Operates long runs of roof or side vents in commercial greenhouses, providing the necessary stroke and force to open multiple linked vent sections simultaneously.
Select the SC50X1750 when your application requires a long linear reach with a mid-range force output. For higher force at a similar stroke, step up to the SC63 bore, which delivers 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. For a shorter, standard-stroke solution, the SC50X1000 offers a more compact package with the same 50 mm bore force characteristics.
Critical for this 1750 mm stroke: the long, unsupported 20 mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. You must use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent buckling and premature seal wear. For replacement, match exactly: 50 mm bore, 1750 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and no magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) air pressure, the push force is 982 N. The maximum operating push force at 0.9 MPa is 1767 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
A stroke this long on a 20 mm rod requires external guidance. Do not rely on the cylinder's rod bearing alone to support side loads. Install an external linear guide rail or rod support structure parallel to the cylinder to absorb bending moments and ensure reliable operation.
