About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X275CA
The AirTAC SC50X275CA is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 20 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable deceleration for mid-range automation tasks.
This model features a rear single clevis (CA) mount, allowing the cylinder body to pivot during operation, which is ideal for applications requiring angular movement. The 275 mm stroke combined with the 150 mm body length gives a total extended length of 425 mm.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X275CA Is Used
Agricultural Equipment
Operates chutes, gates, and diverters on harvesters and processing machinery where a pivoting clevis mount absorbs misalignment.
Conveyor Diverters
Pivots a diverter arm on a packaging line to sort products by weight or barcode, using the CA mount for the arcing motion.
Clamping & Fixturing
Provides 982 N of clamping force for woodworking or light metalworking jigs, with the clevis allowing the clamp arm to swing clear for part loading.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X275CA the Right Cylinder?
For higher force requirements, consider stepping up to the 63 mm bore SC63 series, which provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a lower force profile is acceptable, the 40 mm bore offers 628 N. When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 50 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, the CA rear clevis mounting accessory (part F-SC50CA), and the non-magnet status. For strokes over 300 mm, an external guide is recommended to protect the rod from side-load bending, but at 275 mm this model is within standard unsupported limits for most axial loads.
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 SC50X275CA FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the cylinder provides 982 N extending and 825 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the extending force reaches 1767 N.
Yes, provided the original is a 50 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, double-acting cylinder with a rear single clevis mount and PT1/4 ports. The SC series is a tie-rod design, so it is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with that standard.
