About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X350SFA
The AirTAC SC50X350SFA is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 50 mm bore and a 350 mm stroke, this model features a 20 mm diameter piston rod and a body length A of 150 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 500 mm.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and an FA front rectangular flange (F-SC50FA) for secure panel or bulkhead mounting. The adjustable pneumatic cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, protecting the cylinder and the load from impact damage.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X350SFA Is Used
Automated Pressing & Clamping
The 1767 N force at 0.9 MPa makes this cylinder ideal for light-duty pressing, clamping fixtures, and assembly jigs where a consistent, controlled force is required.
Material Stop & Diverter Gates
With a 350 mm stroke and front flange mounting, it can be used to actuate stop gates or diverters on conveyor lines, reliably handling packages or small components.
Packaging & Palletizing Equipment
The built-in magnet provides end-of-stroke position feedback, making it suitable for case packers and palletizers where sensor confirmation is critical for cycle sequencing.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X350SFA the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring more force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact solution is acceptable, the 40 mm bore offers 628 N. This 350 mm stroke length requires careful management of side loads; an external guide or rod support should be used to prevent bending stress on the 20 mm rod and premature bearing wear. For a direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT port thread, FA front flange mounting, and the built-in 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 SC50X350SFA FAQ
The theoretical push force is 982 N at 0.5 MPa, 1374 N at 0.7 MPa, and 1767 N at 0.9 MPa. The pull force on the return stroke is lower due to the rod area, providing 825 N at 0.5 MPa. Always factor in a safety margin for real-world dynamic loads.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT ports, front flange (FA) mount, and a magnetic piston.
