About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X605
The SC50X605 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 50 mm bore and an extended 605 mm stroke, built for applications that need a long linear reach from a compact tie-rod body. At 0.5 MPa it supplies 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force, rising to 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod with an M16x1.5 rod thread and PT1/4 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end is 21 mm long, and the basic body length A is 150 mm. Because the 605 mm stroke exceeds the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 50, this is a non-standard, made-to-order configuration.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X605 Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
The 605 mm stroke moves components between distant conveyor stations or across wide gaps in an automated line.
Clamping Large Assemblies
Provides the long travel needed to open and close a fixture for welding or bonding large fabricated parts.
Bin Pushing and Sorting
Pushes heavy totes or boxes off a wide accumulation table onto a sorting lane with 982 N of force at 0.5 MPa.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X605 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50 bore when your load needs roughly 1000 N of force at standard plant pressure. If you need more force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. For a lower force requirement, the 40 mm bore delivers 628 N. This 605 mm stroke is long relative to the 20 mm rod diameter. When the rod is fully extended, side loads can cause bending stress on the rod bearing. For applications with any off-axis load, use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod and seals. To replace an existing SC50X605, match the 50 mm bore, 605 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm the magnet option is not required.
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 SC50X605 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 maximum standard stroke for a 50 mm bore SC cylinder is 1200 mm, but 605 mm is not a standard catalog stroke length. This is a non-standard, made-to-order item. For long strokes like this, ensure the rod is supported against side loads to prevent premature wear.
