About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X300CA
The AirTAC SC50X300CA is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 50 mm bore and 300 mm stroke, configured with a rear single clevis (CA) for pivoting applications. At 0.7 MPa, it generates 1374 N of push force and 825 N of pull force, making it a capable mid-range actuator for automated machinery.
This model features a 20 mm piston rod with M16x1.5 threads and PT1/4 ports. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end. The CA mount uses accessory F-SC50CA, allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X300CA Is Used
Pivoting Chute Gates
The rear clevis mount allows the cylinder to pivot, ideal for actuating chute gates or diverters in agricultural handling equipment where the load path arcs.
Conveyor Diverter Arms
Provides the 300 mm stroke and pivoting action needed to swing a diverter arm across a conveyor, sorting packages or materials by redirecting their path.
Clamp & Weld Fixtures
Delivers consistent clamping force in welding fixtures. The clevis mount accommodates the fixture's pivot point, ensuring the rod aligns as the clamp closes.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X300CA the Right Cylinder?
The SC50 delivers 982 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load requires more force, stepping up to the SC63 bore provides 1559 N at the same pressure. For lighter, faster applications, the SC40 bore offers 628 N. This 300 mm stroke model requires careful alignment; for strokes of 300 mm or more, side loads can bend the 20 mm rod. Use an external guide or switch to a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial. To replace an existing cylinder, match bore, stroke, PT1/4 ports, the CA rear clevis mount, and confirm no magnet is needed.
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 SC50X300CA FAQ
At the standard 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 1374 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1767 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It should only replace another AirTAC SC 50 mm bore cylinder with matching stroke, PT ports, and rear clevis mount.
