About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X310S
The AirTAC SC50X310S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 310 mm stroke suits medium-reach clamping and transfer tasks, with a 20 mm rod diameter providing good column strength for linear moves.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be mounted directly on the tie-rod barrel for end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm) decelerates the piston smoothly, and the PT1/4 port threads connect to standard pneumatic fittings.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X310S Is Used
Part Transfer
Moves components 310 mm between conveyor lanes or pick-and-place stations, with magnetic sensors confirming extend and retract positions.
Clamping & Fixturing
Applies 982 N clamping force at 0.5 MPa to hold workpieces during machining or welding, with sensor feedback for automation interlocks.
Diverting Gates
Operates diverters or sortation gates in material handling lines, using the 310 mm stroke to swing a gate fully open or closed.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X310S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, step up to the SC63 bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa). If a shorter, more rigid assembly is preferred, the SC50X250 offers a 250 mm stroke. At 310 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to side loads; use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 50 mm bore, 310 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet for sensor compatibility.
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 SC50X310S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the cylinder produces 982 N extending (push) and 825 N retracting (pull). At 0.7 MPa, push force rises to 1374 N. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet. You can fit AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel to detect piston position without external brackets.
