About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60H
The SC50X60H is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, configured for high-temperature duty with Viton (FKM) seals. Operating reliably from 0 to +150°C, this 50mm bore unit generates a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 1767 N at 0.9 MPa, making it a robust actuator for hot environments.
With a 60mm stroke and a 20mm diameter piston rod featuring an M16x1.5 thread, the cylinder's total extended body length is 210mm (150mm body length A + 60mm stroke). The PT1/4 port and 21mm adjustable air cushion ensure smooth deceleration, while the tie-rod construction provides a compact alternative to ISO 15552 profiles.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60H Is Used
High-Temperature Process Actuation
Viton seals allow this SC50X60H to operate continuously in ambient temperatures up to 150°C, making it ideal for autoclave doors, drying ovens, or foundry equipment where standard seals would fail.
Hot-Material Diverting
With 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it reliably actuates diverter gates or flippers on conveyors carrying hot materials, maintaining performance without seal degradation.
Clamping in Heated Presses
The 60mm stroke and 1767 N maximum force at 0.9 MPa provide strong, consistent clamping for composite bonding or laminating presses where heat is integral to the process.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60H the Right Cylinder?
This 50mm bore model suits applications needing the force of its class—step up to a 63mm bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) if your load requires more push, or down to a 40mm bore (628 N) for a lighter, faster actuator. The 60mm stroke is well within the 1200mm maximum standard stroke for this bore.
For replacement, match five points exactly: 50mm bore, 60mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and the high-temperature Viton seal variant (-H). Always confirm the tie-rod body length A of 150mm, as the SC series is shorter than ISO 15552 cylinders and is not dimensionally interchangeable with them.
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 SC50X60H FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 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 at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No, it is not a direct replacement. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length (150mm body length A for the 50mm bore) than a comparable ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is only dimensionally interchangeable with another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder of the same bore and stroke.
