The AirTAC Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X195SN is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 195mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC50X195SN is a tie-rod double-acting cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1767 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 50 mm bore and 195 mm stroke, it uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod and M16x1.5 rod thread, providing solid alignment for medium-duty linear tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) so CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors clip directly onto the barrel for contactless position sensing. The -N suffix specifies NBR (nitrile) seals, and the port thread is standard PT1/4. The body length A is 150 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 345 mm.

The 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa is well-suited for stopping cartons or tote bins on a gravity or powered conveyor line, where the magnet sensors confirm gate open/closed status.
Ideal for pneumatic clamping jigs in machining or assembly. The NBR seals offer good wear resistance, and the 195 mm stroke provides ample clearance for loading and unloading parts.
Use this cylinder to pivot a diverter arm in a sorting system. The integrated magnet allows two sensors to verify the arm's home and divert positions for reliable automated sortation.
Choose the SC50 when your application needs around 980 N of force at standard shop air. If you require more thrust, step up to the SC63 bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC40 delivers 628 N. The 195 mm stroke is within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore.
For replacement, match five points: 50 mm bore, 195 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, NBR seal material, and the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 982 N and the pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be clamped directly onto the barrel for contactless end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position sensing.
