About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X58S
The SC50X58S is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 50 mm bore and 20 mm diameter piston rod provide a robust force class for medium-duty clamping and pressing tasks, while the 58 mm stroke is a non-standard length made to order for precise fitment.
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 reliable end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, and the body length A is 150 mm, giving a compact footprint for integration into automated work cells.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X58S Is Used
Sensor-Equipped Clamping
The built-in magnet enables CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm clamp position in automated welding or assembly fixtures, ensuring cycle integrity before the next operation.
Product Sorting Gate
With 982 N of force at 0.5 MPa, this cylinder reliably actuates diverter gates on packaging lines, using the 58 mm stroke to redirect products between lanes.
Short-Stroke Press Function
The 20 mm rod and 150 mm body length A suit light press-fit or staking operations where a non-standard 58 mm stroke avoids over-travel in a tight machine envelope.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X58S the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC50X58S when you need sensor-ready position feedback in a compact 50 mm bore. For higher force, step up to the SC63 bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, faster actuator, the SC40 bore provides 628 N. This cylinder uses the standard PT1/4 port and TPU seals for operation from -20 to +70 °C.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five points: 50 mm bore, 58 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic (no bracket) mounting. Always confirm the non-standard 58 mm stroke length, as standard strokes start at 25 mm and jump in 25 mm increments.
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 SC50X58S FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 982 N and the pull force (retract) is 825 N. At 0.7 MPa, push force increases to 1374 N. The maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) and DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clip directly onto the cylinder's tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
