About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X215S
The SC50X215S is a double-acting AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm bore and a non-standard 215 mm stroke, delivering 1374 N of push force at 0.7 MPa. Its 20 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable deceleration for mid-range linear tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for precise position feedback. With a body length of 150 mm, the total extended length reaches approximately 365 mm, making it a compact yet powerful actuator for space-sensitive automation.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X215S Is Used
Part Sorting Gate
The 215 mm stroke and 1767 N push force at 0.9 MPa actuate diverter gates on medium-duty conveyors. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke sensing to confirm gate position for sorting accuracy.
Clamping & Fixturing
Applies 1374 N of clamping force at 0.7 MPa to hold workpieces during machining or assembly. The adjustable cushion reduces impact at clamp closure, protecting both the fixture and the part.
Pallet Stop & Lift
With a 20 mm rod and 215 mm travel, this cylinder operates pallet stops or small lift tables in logistics hubs. Magnetic sensors provide confirmation of raised or lowered status to the control system.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X215S the Right Cylinder?
For higher force, step up to the 63 mm bore SC63 series, which offers 2805 N push at 0.9 MPa. If lower force and a smaller footprint are acceptable, the 40 mm bore provides 1130 N at 0.9 MPa. This 215 mm stroke is non-standard for the 50 mm bore (max standard is 1200 mm), so confirm lead time for this made-to-order length.
When replacing, match five points: 50 mm bore, 215 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and basic mounting. At this stroke length, ensure the rod is not subjected to side loads; if lateral forces are present, add an external linear guide to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
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 SC50X215S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SC50X215S produces 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1767 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It replaces other AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinders with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, and magnet option.
