About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X2000
The AirTAC SC50X2000 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm bore and an extended 2000 mm stroke, produced as a non-standard made-to-order configuration. It generates a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a 20 mm diameter piston rod with an M16x1.5 male thread.
This model features a 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, with a body length A of 150 mm. The standard PT1/4 port and TPU seals suit an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C. For strokes of this length, external guide rods or a guided cylinder are strongly recommended to protect the rod from bending under side load.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X2000 Is Used
Long-Reach Material Handling
Operates a long-stroke pusher or ejector arm in a warehouse automation system, moving pallets or large boxes across a conveyor with a controlled 2000 mm reach.
Automated Gluing or Dispensing
Drives a dispensing head across a 2000 mm linear axis on a packaging or assembly line, providing consistent force for applying adhesives or sealants over large panels.
Ventilation or Damper Control
Actuates a large ventilation damper or louver in an agricultural or industrial building, using the full 2000 mm stroke to open and close air pathways from a remote position.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X2000 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC50 bore when your application requires a push force around 982 N at 0.5 MPa. For a lower force class, step down to the SC40 (628 N at 0.5 MPa); for significantly more power, the SC63 delivers 1559 N at the same pressure. This 2000 mm stroke exceeds the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore, making it a special-order item.
To guarantee a successful replacement, match five key points: the 50 mm bore, the 2000 mm stroke, the PT1/4 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting, and the absence of a built-in magnet. For this 2000 mm stroke, side-load management is critical—an unsupported 20 mm rod at full extension is highly susceptible to bending. Always use an external linear guide or a self-guided actuator to absorb transverse forces.
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 SC50X2000 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 982 N and the pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No, it is not recommended. The SC50X2000 has a 20 mm diameter rod, and at a 2000 mm stroke, it is highly vulnerable to bending and buckling under side loads or high-speed cycling. You must use an external linear guide rail or switch to a guided cylinder to ensure reliable operation and prevent premature seal and bearing failure.
