About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X595S
The AirTAC SC50X595S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 50 mm bore and 595 mm stroke suit mid-range linear tasks where a sensor-ready design is essential—the built-in magnet lets CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors clamp directly onto the barrel for precise position feedback without extra brackets.
This model uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod with M16x1.5 male threads and PT1/4 ports. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston at stroke end to reduce impact, while the TPU seals handle an operating range of -20 to +70 °C. Total extended body length is approximately 745 mm (150 mm body length A + 595 mm stroke).

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X595S Is Used
Sensor-Monitored Clamping
The built-in magnet enables CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm clamp position in real time, making this cylinder ideal for automated welding or assembly fixtures where stroke-end verification prevents cycle faults.
Part Sorting & Diverting
With 1374 N of force at 0.7 MPa and a 595 mm stroke, the SC50X595S can push product across a wide conveyor lane. Magnetic sensors provide the controller with exact diverter gate position.
Material Feed Systems
Use the long 595 mm stroke to advance sheet or bar stock into a CNC or press. Sensor feedback confirms full extension and retraction, ensuring consistent feed length in automated production cells.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X595S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50X595S when you need sensor feedback on a mid-force cylinder. If your load exceeds the 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, step up to the 63 mm bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa); for lighter, faster moves the 40 mm bore provides 628 N. At 595 mm stroke, the 20 mm rod is long enough that side loads must be managed—use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing from bending moments.
For direct replacement, match five points: 50 mm bore, 595 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and your mounting accessory (basic here; add LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, or TC if needed). This SC cylinder 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
- ✓ 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 SC50X595S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 982 N and pulls with 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet inside the piston, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors can be clamped directly onto the barrel tie-rod slots. A non-S model would require a different sensing method.
