The AirTAC SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X415S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 415mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC50X415S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, rising to 1767 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. Its 415 mm stroke suits medium-reach clamping, pressing, and material-transfer tasks where consistent pneumatic power is needed.
This model features a built-in magnet (suffix -S), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be clamped directly onto the barrel for precise, non-contact position sensing. The 20 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/4 port thread provide a robust connection, while the adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly over a 21 mm cushion length.

The 982 N push force at standard line pressure is ideal for pressing bushings, bearings, or pins into housings on automated assembly stations, with the magnetic piston enabling end-of-stroke confirmation via barrel-mounted sensors.
With a 415 mm stroke, this cylinder can push products across a conveyor into sorting lanes. The built-in magnet allows for mid-stroke and full-extension position feedback to the PLC for accurate timing.
Used to actuate case erectors or pallet layer-forming gates, the SC50X415S provides repeatable linear motion. Sensor feedback from the magnetic piston ensures the mechanism has fully retracted before the next cycle starts.
For applications needing more force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore SC63 series provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, more compact cylinder is acceptable, the 40 mm bore SC40 series offers 628 N at the same pressure. At a 415 mm stroke, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loading; an external guide or a guided cylinder is recommended to protect the rod bearing and seals from premature wear.
When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 50 mm bore, 415 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. The SC series is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC50 of the same configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa (5 bar), the cylinder produces 982 N of force when extending (push) and 825 N when retracting (pull). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1767 N.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code SC50X415S indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to mount AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG series sensors directly onto the cylinder barrel's sensor groove for contactless position detection.
