About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60SH
The SC50X60SH is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1767 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 60 mm stroke suits short clamping, ejecting, and positioning tasks where heat resistance is critical.
This model carries the -S magnet option for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, plus -H Viton (FKM) seals that shift the operating temperature range to 0–150 °C. The 20 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable end-of-stroke deceleration in hot environments.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60SH Is Used
Hot-Zone Clamping
Viton seals allow this cylinder to operate in ambient temperatures up to 150 °C, making it ideal for clamping fixtures inside ovens, autoclaves, or near heat-sealing bars.
Sensor-Monitored Ejection
The built-in magnet enables CMSG/DMSG sensors to confirm full extension and retraction, providing closed-loop feedback for part ejection in automated assembly cells.
High-Temperature Valve Actuation
Delivers 1767 N at 0.9 MPa to cycle ball or butterfly valves on steam or hot-fluid lines, where standard seals would degrade prematurely.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X60SH the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50 bore when 982 N at 0.5 MPa meets the load; step up to SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa) for heavier work or down to SC40 (628 N) for a lighter, more compact unit. For replacement, match bore, 60 mm stroke, PT port thread, the -S magnet, and the -H Viton seal material exactly.
At 60 mm stroke side loading is minimal, but always align the rod with the load axis to avoid bending the 20 mm rod. If the application involves frequent high-temperature cycling, the Viton seal variant is the correct choice over standard TPU.
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 SC50X60SH FAQ
At 0.7 MPa the cylinder produces 1374 N pushing force and 825 N pulling force (retracting). The maximum operating force at 0.9 MPa is 1767 N push.
Yes, the SC50X60SH is mechanically identical to a non-magnet SC50X60. The added magnet does not change the envelope or mounting, so it fits the same space while adding sensor capability. Ensure the seal material (Viton) matches your temperature requirements.
