About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200TCN
The SC50X200TCN is a 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). This tie-rod design features a 20 mm diameter piston rod with M16x1.5 male threads, and an adjustable air cushion of 21 mm at each end to decelerate the load smoothly.
This specific model is configured with a centre trunnion (TC) mount, allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation, and is supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC50TC). The NBR (nitrile) seals provide reliable performance within the standard -20 to +70 °C temperature range, making it a robust choice for general industrial automation tasks.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200TCN Is Used
Conveyor Diverters
The 200 mm stroke and pivoting TC mount make this cylinder ideal for push-arm diverters on packaging lines, where the 982 N force reliably redirects boxes or totes.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers consistent 1374 N clamping force at 0.7 MPa for welding jigs and assembly fixtures. The centre trunnion allows the cylinder body to self-align as the clamp engages.
Grain Chute Actuation
With NBR seals for standard temperatures, this cylinder actuates flow-control gates on agricultural chutes, handling the dusty environment with its robust tie-rod construction.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X200TCN the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC50 bore when your application requires around 982 N of force at standard plant pressure. If you need more force, stepping up to the SC63 bore provides 1559 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For a 200 mm stroke, side loading is a key consideration; ensure the load is guided externally to prevent bending stress on the 20 mm rod. For a direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT port thread, NBR seals, and the TC centre trunnion mounting configuration exactly.
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 SC50X200TCN FAQ
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, the push force increases to 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. You must replace it with another AirTAC SC50 cylinder with the same 200 mm stroke, PT ports, NBR seals, and TC centre trunnion mount.
