The AirTAC SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X350STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 350mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC50X350STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it a robust mid-range actuator for industrial automation. This model features a 20 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/4 ports, and an adjustable air cushion of 21 mm to decelerate end-of-stroke impact smoothly.
Configured with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) and a centre trunnion mount (-TC suffix), this cylinder is ready for pivoting applications. The magnet allows direct clamping of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The trunnion bracket (F-SC50TC, supplied with the TCM1 bracket) enables the cylinder to swing as the load articulates, preventing rod bending from misalignment.

The 350 mm stroke and pivoting trunnion mount allow the cylinder to swing a diverter gate on a conveyor line, reliably sorting packages with a push force of up to 1767 N.
With a built-in magnet for sensor feedback, this cylinder confirms clamp position in automated welding cells, applying 982 N of force at standard shop air pressure.
The centre trunnion mount handles the arcing motion of a discharge chute on a grain or feed handling system, while the TPU seals perform reliably in dusty environments from -20 to +70 °C.
Select the SC50 bore when your application requires a force between the SC40 (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the SC63 (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa). For this 350 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to direct side loads; an external guide rail or guided cylinder is recommended to protect the rod bearing and seals from premature wear caused by bending moments.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 50 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with the F-SC50TC bracket, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility. This is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC50 of identical configuration.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, the theoretical push force is 1374 N and the pull force (accounting for the 20 mm rod area) is 1155 N. The maximum operating push force at 0.9 MPa is 1767 N.
No, the AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length (A=150 mm) than a comparable ISO 15552 cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Only replace with another AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinder matching the 350 mm stroke, PT ports, and trunnion mount.
