About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X465
The SC50X465 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 982 N 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 465 mm stroke, this model uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod and M16x1.5 rod thread for robust linear actuation.
This tie-rod cylinder features an adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) to decelerate the piston smoothly at end-of-stroke, reducing impact and noise. Its compact body length A of 150 mm keeps the overall extended length to approximately 615 mm, making it suitable for medium-reach applications where space is a consideration.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X465 Is Used
Part Transfer
Moves components between conveyor lanes with a 465 mm reach, using the 982 N push force to shift totes or fixtures reliably at 0.5 MPa line pressure.
Light Press Assembly
Applies up to 1767 N of insertion force at 0.9 MPa for pressing bushings or bearings into housings, with the adjustable cushion protecting tooling at end-of-stroke.
Divert Gate Actuation
Operates a diverter gate on a packaging line, extending 465 mm to redirect cartons. The tie-rod design allows easy maintenance in dusty environments.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X465 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50X465 when your application requires around 980 N of force at standard shop air. If you need a higher force class, stepping up to the SC63 bore provides 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa. For a lighter, more compact solution, the SC40 bore delivers 628 N.
For this 465 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally if significant side forces are present; the 20 mm rod can experience bending under unsupported side loads. When replacing an existing cylinder, match all five points: 50 mm bore, 465 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no magnet.
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 SC50X465 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 982 N and the pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The SC50X465 is a double-acting cylinder and does not lock or hold position when pressure is exhausted. The piston will drift if the directional valve is centered or air is lost. For load holding, add a pilot-operated check valve or an external rod brake.
