About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200SCA
The AirTAC SC50X200SCA is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 50 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, it features a 20 mm diameter piston rod with M16x1.5 threads and an adjustable air cushion of 21 mm to decelerate the piston smoothly at end-of-travel.
This specific model includes a built-in magnet for mounting CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors directly on the barrel and comes with a rear single clevis (CA) mount for pivoting applications. The standard PT1/4 ports and TPU seals provide reliable operation within a -20 to +70 C temperature range, making it a versatile actuator for general industrial automation.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200SCA Is Used
Clamping & Fixuring
The 982 N force at0.5 MPa is ideal for robust workpiece clamping in CNC machining and welding fixures, with the rear clevis allowing the cylinder to pivot as it engages.
Part Diverter
Use this cylinder on a pivoting gate or diverter arm on a conveyor line. The CA clevis mount handles the arc motion, while the magnetic piston allows end-of-stroke position sensing.
Hopper Gate Actuator
Controls a discharge gate on a material hopper. The 200 mm stroke provides sufficient travel for a full-open position, and the clevis mount absorbs misalignment during operation.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200SCA the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC50 when your application requires a force class between the smaller SC40 (628 N at0.5 MPa) and the larger SC63 (1559 N at0.5 MPa). For this 200 mm stroke, the 20 mm rod is robust, but always ensure the load is guided to prevent side-load bending, which can damage the rod bearing and seals.
For a drop-in replacement, match five key points: 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT port thread, CA rear clevis mounting (using bracket F-SC50CA), and the -S magnet for sensor compatibility. This tie-rod cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile and is not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard.
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 SC50X200SCA FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of0.5 MPa, the push force is 982 N and the pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC50 cylinder with the same stroke, PT ports, CA clevis mount, and -S magnet option.
