About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X700
The SC50X700 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod series, delivering 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force when operated at 0.5 MPa. Its 50 mm bore and 700 mm stroke suit medium-force linear tasks where a compact envelope is required, with a body length A of 150 mm and a 20 mm diameter piston rod for reliable load handling.
This model uses PT1/4 port threads and an M16x1.5 rod thread, with an adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly. The standard TPU seals provide an operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C, making it a practical choice for general industrial automation.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X700 Is Used
Material Handling Pusher
Provides the 700 mm stroke needed to push boxes or totes across a wide conveyor junction, with ample force at standard line pressure.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivers consistent 982 N clamping force for medium-duty welding or assembly fixtures, with adjustable cushioning to reduce impact on jigs.
Bin Diverter Gate
Actuates a diverter chute in a sorting system, using the long stroke to fully extend or retract a gate between two material paths.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X700 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50X700 when your application needs around 982 N of force at standard plant pressure. If you require higher force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore (SC63 series) provides 1559 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For lower force and a lighter, more compact cylinder, the 40 mm bore delivers 628 N.
For a 700 mm stroke, carefully evaluate side loading. Long, unsupported piston rods are susceptible to bending under lateral forces. Always guide the load externally with rails or use a guided cylinder if off-axis forces are present. When replacing this cylinder, match five points: 50 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the non-magnet 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 SC50X700 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 at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is dimensionally shorter than a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not interchangeable with ISO 15552 mounts. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, and basic mounting.
